Swedish Diamond Zig Zag Bracelet Posted by Al13 on February 24, 2022, 11:33 am Hello. I was hoping someone can help me with some information regarding the zig zag bracelet worn by the Swedish Royal ladies. Is it the same as the choker worn by the Grand Duchess of Baden, the mother of Queen Sophia of Sweden?
