I think the bracelet/choker has been discussed on The Royal Forums/Bernadotte Family Jewels, but the site search engine doesn’t work on my browser:

I wish we could see it worn like a choker again - it's an impressive piece!

I apologize if this has been discussed before, I recall seeing this picture on message boards earlier, but I can’t remember that the choker was discussed then. The picture is number 7 in this Instagram post: https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq8f-vTgmGs/?igshid=jddfnjklr51h
Grand duchess Louise of Sweden was the mother of Queen Victoria of Sweden and several pieces of jewelry in the Swedish collection can be traced back to her.
To my eyes the choker looks identical to the bracelet often worn by princess Lilian of Sweden and also worn by princess Madeleine of Sweden at her wedding. http://orderofsplendor.blogspot.com/2013/06/princess-madeleines-wedding-bride.html?m=1
On the picture of Louise we can see that the choker is fastened on fabric and that it doesn’t seem to go all around the neck, but that other pieces of jewelry are also used.
What do others think?
