I have always wondered whether or not this may have been made into a sapphire tiara that in the end pleased nobody. It may have just ended up on a shelf in the vault as no one got around to remodelling it.

Am I right in thinking the brooch is still around?

Welcome to the board Mike! What an interesting set of ideas you have.

For many reasons I would love to see the Queen Mother's sapphire sautoir worn

and to know if our guess, that it was made from HM's wedding gift necklace from Queen Mary, is correct.
