Also for sale in 1985 was an emerald brooch which belonging to his grandmother Queen Margherita, who has received it from her mother Elisabeth of Savoy.
Is it the brooch at the very bottom aligned with the floral tiara, which was also owned by the House of Savoy?
I accept it isn't a perfect fit, the diamonds at the centre are more rounded whereas in the 1867 picture they appear more pointed but I am conscious that could just be a trick of the light/angles.
