Please find below my answer to your several questions :
The Dogwood emerald, diamond and gold necklace and the jade and diamond necklace are two different necklaces.
In fact, the Dogwood emerald necklace is not a wedding gift ! It was a gift from her travel in Canada in 1951.
She has only worn this necklace once I think...when she was given the necklace.
To be honest with you, I don't like the design of this necklace (with a lot of gold).
To my mind, It could be a necklace for young royals (for exemple the Duchess of Cambridge)
Moreover, I tell you the incredible story of the discover of this necklace :
Few years ago (On least 6 years because I didn't live in Paris at that time) we had discovered on this board, that Queen Elizabeth II had two different necklaces.
That was an incredible game because Sparkler from Canada (she had no scanner) sent me via Joye from Australia a letter with a photo of the emerald and diamond necklace in order to be posted on this board what I have done afterwards....
Unfortuntelty, I can"t post a photo of the necklace of the board (on PDF.DOC) but if you want I can send you a photo of this necklace by email !
Last but not least when I read Vincent's english and your own writting I am little "jealous" : I serioulsy need to improve my nivel of english.
