Ok. You say my pic has the turquoise necklace.
I have never been sure. That's all.

: Nellie, thank you for looking, but I wasn´t
: looking for a specific picture.
:
: The late Queen Elizabeth received a pearl
: and diamond necklace, a diamond and sapphire
: necklace, and an amethyst necklace for her
: wedding in 1923. There have never been any
: pictures showing her wear any of these
: necklaces, and I had the idea that she
: possibly did so in the picture you posted
: where she is wearing a crinoline dress.
:
: Boffer confirmed that the picture showed her
: wear the well known pearl and diamond
: necklace of Queen Alexandra, not any of the
: wedding presents I was thinking of.
:
: In the latest picture posted by Nellie, a
: very young Duchess of York appears to wear
: the complete turquoise parure she also
: received for her wedding. It is a very nice
: parure, sadly she rarely wore it and there
: are no colour pictures of her wearing it as
: far as I know.
