Here is a picture of QV in what looks like the said QA&QC pearls below which kind of resemble the ones worn by QE2 on her wedding day.

Regards,
Dave.
I found this photo of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother on the Royal Collection site.
According to the Royal Collection curators HM was attending a garden party at Bulawayo during the South African tour of 1947.
HM's pearl necklace/s caught my attention.
Could it be that she was wearing the Queen Anne and Queen Caroline necklaces?
What do others think?
I cannot place HM's brooch either. Has anyone any ideas?
For those who want to compare the pearls below is a photo of the Queen Anne and Queen Caroline pearls.
