I must admit I don't feel it works with the pearls as it seems a little lost. It's unusual as the Duchess normally wears her jewels with great style.
The Duchess of Gloucester frequently wears a lozenge shaped pendant with her black pearl necklace.
Finally, I found high definition photos which show that the pendant has the cypher of Queen Victoria.

I wonder how the Duchess acquired this jewel? I don't recollect seeing Princess Alice ever wearing it.
