or it was the orginal clasp of the Duchess of Saxe-Coburg, Alberts Mother.
thank you for sharing, I believe she wore it again on her Winterhalter Portrait of 1865, 2 years later.
Probably altered, in a longer version - 3 rows and a large clasp with an lovely sapphire.
The picture is still at the castle Rosenau, and I will tell you it's amazing. When I take that pictured I ask me, where are that pearls gone...which she presented in this picture very prominent.
In her later days she wore a large string pearl of pearls with a knot in the high of her hip and a tassel pendant...probably altered again..
