Yes, besides the generous wedding gifts, Queen Mary had also given the ornate Love Trophy Collar "when Duchess of York." Later in 1936-37 Queen Mary also gave the Queen Mother the gorgeous Queen Victoria's Fringe Brooch, Queen Alexandra's Wedding Necklace, the fringe tiara, the crescent tiara Ashdean mentioned, and likely the Teck circles necklace.
To answer your original question, Bryce, Roberts lists two items which Queen Mary left to QEQM in her will: the Duchess of Teck's necklace of 46 diamond collets and the diamond ring Queen Mary had received from the town of Windsor as a wedding gift.
