If so it is the pearl brooch that was lost but fortunately later recovered. It is one of my favourites of Princess Alexandra's brooches.
(The photo was found on Flickr and the user romanbenedikhanson)
When I was trying to find information about the brooch Princess Alexandra wore on her hat when visiting the British Industries Fair in Stockholm at the end of May 1962 (J-F's second photo below), I saw the following. (There were several identical reports)
I am going to give the details in case anyone has access to photos or newspapers which might have a photo of Princess Alexandra at the ball.
The report above was from a paper dated 30 May 1962, so I assume that the date of the ball was 28 May 1962.
The occasion was a combined banquet and ball given by the Federation of British Industries at the City Hall, Stockholm.
I would love to be able to identify which brooch the Princess wore as all the reports say that it came from Queen Mary.
