Good eye Arthur !! Because of the distinctive colouring and the large central diamond, I am pretty convinced that you have found a match. Now maybe some of the board detectives can track down some further provenance. I did determine that, according to the Royal Collection web site, the photo was from 1909 at Barton Manor, Whippingham, Isle of White. I will keep digging to see if I can find out anything further about this charming brooch.
