    I have absolutely no information about this necklace, and I do not know of which type of stones it is made. I regret that the neckline of the Duchess of Cornwall's dress does not enable us to have a good view of the necklace.

    Here are two more watermark-free pictures (from Zimbio):

    It might have been a gift of traditional Arabic jewellery - but this is pure speculation from me.

    We can notice that the Duchess of Cornwall wore other items of traditional jewellery during this visit to the Middle-East:

    I am not sure that this bracelet can be labelled as "traditional", but it was a gift to Camilla, and she wore it!
