I agree that the artist was definitely portraying QV's Jubilee Necklace. When looking at paintings we must always take into consideration artistic license especially if the portrait is not done in a realist style. And HM could have very well been wearing the complete necklace but the artist thought it too busy and decided to only paint the central element.
