Of course, the awarding of the Peace Nobel Prize in Oslo (this year attributed to the Tunisian National Dialogue Quartet) does not compete at all with the Swedish ceremonies, when it comes to royal glitter.
Queen Sonja managed, though, to show us, during the ceremony at Oslo's City Hall, a nice gold and (apparently) turquoise floral brooch, that I had never seen earlier, along with a pair of turquoise and diamond earrings (already worn) and a matching ring and bracelet:

Later in the evening, for the gala reception at Oslo's Grand Hotel in honour of the Peace Nobel Prize laureates, Queen Sonja wore several ropes of pearls, along with a longer sautoir. She was already seen very often with these pearls, but I could find an interesting image "from the back", showing the different clasps of these pearl ropes: a sapphire and diamond plaque forming the clasp of a four-row choker, then another single row of pearls with a single pearl as clasp, and finally the longer sautoir with a clasp made of a pearl and diamond cluster (the earrings are the ones matching with Queen Maud's pearl and diamond tiara):
