Thank you very much, dear Stig, for the correction. I had read my files too hastily, and related this commemorative brooch to the wrong Louise. I will edit my initial post.
If this brooch was made in memory of the Duchess of Connaught, did it go to Queen Margrethe II via her mother Queen Ingrid (maternal granddaughter of the Duchess of Connaught), or was it made initially for Queen Louise or Queen (then still Crown Princess) Alexandrine of Denmark?
Queen Margrethe II of Denmark wore the black heart-shaped brooch with Queen Louise' cypher
It's not Queen Louise's cypher. The brooch was made in 1917 in commemoration of the Duchess of Connaught, the former Princess Louise of Prussia.
