Unfortunately, I can not identify Queen Alexandra's bracelet (on her right wrist - the one on the left wrist is obviously Queen Victoria's diamond bracelet, made in 1838 and designated by Queen Victoria as Crown heirloom - see Hugh Roberts, The Queen's Diamonds, pages 44-45).
It is an opportunity, though, to post these pictures from the same photo session, with King Gustav V and Queen Victoria of Sweden, Price William (Vilhelm) of Sweden, Duke of Södermanland, Princess Louise of Great-Britain and Ireland, Duchess of Fife, and Princess Victoria of Great-Britain and Ireland. A true dazzling royal gathering!
(Does anyone know on which occasion these pictures were taken?)
