    Dear Arthur

    From Bjarnes book about the royal Danish jewelry, he states following:

    Branch

    A branch with diamonds and a red stone, a spinel, that belonged to Queen Louisa. These brooches where very popular I the end of the 18'century, before the influence of Belle Époque.
    Queen Ingrid and then queen Margrethe has both worn it.
