Thank you Glenn. What an interesting suggestion -- that Queen Anne Marie's ring might contain the extra emerald. In photos the colour looks to be a match.
Many thanks for bringing up this topic Manuel Fernando. The Greek emeralds are luscious, especially when the light shines behind them so we can all see the beauty of the gemstones. I wish the parure contained even more!
--Previous Message-- : I also see 12 'round' (3 on the kokoshnik, 5 : around the neck and 4 on the front of the : dress) and 7 drops on Queen Olga. : : Look at the photo where you say possibly 11 : round worn by Queen Anne-Marie. Now look at : your big photo of Queen Anne-Marie and look : on her finger - where you might find the : possible 12th emerald. : : As for 'Queen Frederika's emerald drop' I : think this might have been a gift for her or : she could have bought it herself. : : I do not think this emerald comes from Queen : Olga. Queen Anne-Marie does not wear it that : often - and I think she sometimes forgets : she has the 8th drop. : : If Queen Anne-Marie wore the 8th drop more : often she would be able to wear 3 drops on : her necklace and 3 on the brooch like she : did to the birthday celebrations of King : Carl Gustaf. : : The option she wore in Denmark with 4 drops : on her necklace and 1 on the brooch looks : silly - if you ask me. : : : : :
