I have some questions about the many emerald pieces in that belonged to the Belgian ladies.
Where did they come from? Gifts from? I think that some of them were gifts from Astrid's parents and some gifts from Leopold's parents but I don't know which is which.
Where did they end up? I know that the emerald cross pendant and the emerald bracelet/choker went to Grand Duchess Josephine Charlotte but that is it.
Which of the pendant necklaces was the cross that was made from parts of the Norwegian Emerald Parure and was later turned into the Emerald Peacock Necklace/Tiara by Grand Duchess Josephine Charlotte?
How many emerald pieces were there?
emerald earrings and several pendants
same pic as above but with view of the emerald bracelet/choker that was later given to Grand Duchess Josephine Charlotte
emerald tiara, emerald pendants, emerald brooch
Is this the same large emerald brooch that was later worn by Princess Lilian? Is the necklace made of emeralds or is it her diamond riviere with an emerald pendant?
Is this the same as one of the pendants above?
Is this brooch the same as the one worn by Princess Lilian?
And then of course Princess Lilian's emerald drop earrings and the large emerald brooch
