I wonder if the necklace has survived? According to Leslie Field, Queen Mary had it dismantled, reusing the pearls and emeralds in the two emerald and pearl necklaces she gave to the Duchess of Gloucester as part of her wedding gifts. I have always been sceptical of that as I feel that the pearls in Queen Alexandra's necklace were smaller.



If it has survived, I am sure that the Duchess of Cornwall could wear it with style.
