Thank you very much, Christian. About the "cheap" price: the choker is made with cultured pearls (if I well understand the caption in the auction catalogue), and not with natural pearls, whereas aquamarines are not the most expensive of semi-precious stones. And this aquamarine is of a very pale blue, whereas I think that aquamarines with a more intense colour are most expensive. So I understand that the price was not that high. I do not suggest that the jewels presented to Mary are of low quality, but they are not of the higest quality either.
