Yes indeed! One can see it peeking out under The Crown Princess’ sleeve. I wonder how Princess Astrid, a proud descendant of V&A, might feel that her special gift to Princess Ingrid Alexandra has been worn twice now by The Crown Princess!

Lovely photos and I definitely agree that the Pearl tiara really fits Queen Mary. Seeing her leaving the Danish Royal Yacht was such a "wow" moment!
Is Mette-Marit wearing Princess Ingrid Alexandra's Victoria and Albert bracelet again? Previous Message
Great to see Queen Mary wearing (part of) the Danish pearl parure. Of course, it was quite expected, and so not much of a surprise, that she now wears the jewels reserved for the Queen, but the pearl drop tiara really suits her.
I am a bit disappointed that she did not wear the necklace and the corsage brooch of the parure, she would have looked splendidly regal with the full parure - yet without overshadowing Queen Sonja and her equally-splendid Bernadotte emeralds (and her almost as much historic salmon dress! )
