The next day Princess Benedicte wore her necklace as bracelet. How did She ?

: The diamond necklaces with lozenge-shaped
: motifs worn by Princess Benedikte and Queen
: Anne-Marie both come from their paternal
: grand-mother, Queen Alexandrine. Both
: necklaces could be connected together, to
: make a longer necklace or sautoir, as it was
: fashionable in the 1920s/1930s. Queen
: Alexandrine wore it in various lengths,
: often with a pendant connected to it.

: According to information provided on this
: board by (the well-informed and much-missed)
: Bjarne on this board in 2008, " the
: sautoir necklace that now belongs to
: Princess Benedikte and Queen Anne-Marie was
: not taken apart for them. It was made to be
: parted in two necklaces and again into
: bracelets. The necklace was part of King
: Frederik's inheritage from his mother
: ".
