I want to answer to your thread because this picture belongs to the one with her Daughter Alexandra of wales and her granddaugter.
Never a Queen had such a brillant desendance but I think she seems not intereded in jewels which here are on velvet for the tiara and necklace.
The next Queen Lovisa of sweden had jewels from her unfortunate Mother Louisa of the Netherlands.

Queen Louise was really decked out like a regal magpie in this famous photo taken with her equally jewelled daughter Alexandra.
I am curious about some of the jewels she wears, particularly her head ornaments. Is she wearing diamonds from the Danish crown jewels attached to a black velvet kokosnik? And what became of the interesting tiara she appears to be wearing? I also see upright drop pearls, although I can’t tell if they are part of the tiara. Could these be part of the star tiara that Princess Benedikta now wears?
The necklace I am pretty sure I recognize from the crown jewels, but what of the diamonds on the choker? and the various brooches I am curious if have been dispersed over the years.
