Interestingly Joan Rivers who appears with her in your photograph, wore the necklace of the parure to an award show some years ago.
Joan was a slight woman but even still you can appreciate the magnitude of the jewels, Archduchess Isabella was a much more imposing character and even she looks swamped by them.
A link to some pictures can be found here.

Such a shame that a parure such as this was broken up.
