Dear Beth, Dear all,
I also think it the QA and QC's pearls.
It is not the indian pearls.
Concerning the brooch, I do think that it can be this unknown diamond brooch :
I have try to find other photos of this brooch with a large diamond worn in America.
Documentary from an spanish TV.
What do you think ?
Very best regards,
Franck

It is always so hard to tell with pearls.
I was wondering if they might be her Indian Pearls with the ruby clasp - my thought being that she might no want to take QA&QC's pearls overseas.
As for the brooch... could it be a badge? Did she inspect any troops etc that day? She was Royal Colonel of at least 3 SA regiments.
Sorry... more questions rather than answers.
