no, the one pictured is most definitely from the Imperial treasury. The one that Princess Francoise is wearing is another version. Given that there were many duplicates made of particularly favoured pieces (such as the pear shaped pearl drop necklace in the Treasury and the one owned by Grand Duchess Vladimir, etc), I would say that this was one of those instances. --Previous Message-- : Many thanks for the photos, Dmitry.
