Maybe an answer : I have read in a very interesting article written by Vincent M in Point de Vue concerning the emerald necklace worn by QEII in December that QEQM had been left 76 jewels by Mrs. Greville.
Maybe Mr Meylan had an access to the inventory made by Christie's.

Yes, there is an inventory from 1902 in the book with 415 entries and the majority of these jewels cannot be found in documents after the war, so it's safe to say that they were sent in Russia.
There were also two testaments of queen Marie, one in 1909 and one in 1912 which should contain all of her jewellery. Previous Message
Sigh! I think we would all jump for joy if a list of Mrs Greville's jewels was released Mike! But, realistically I don't think that is going to happen.
Mark, I wonder if Prince Dimitri is going to address the issue of what Queen Marie sent to Russia in his forthcoming book? I think you said the book was due sometime soon.
I also think that Csaba might have indicated that such a list or part of the information has already been compiled.
Have I remembered that correctly Csaba?
Is the inventory published in a book?
And is the will published?
