Marie Antionette Necklace
A little bit of history

The loudest scandal of the 18th century engulfed the jewel which did not belong to the crown of France. In 1785 the Comtessa de la Motte had the necklace delivered to her.

It was the most expensive jewel of the era. She in turn was supposed to take it to Marie Antionette but she stole it instead.

Her accomplice was arrested and imprisoned, but she escaped prison and took refuge in London. She removed 22 of the large diamonds from the necklace and sold them in London where they were mounted into a new necklace.

This necklace is now owned by a private collector. Comtessa de la Motte supposedly died in 1791 but theory says that she lived for a long time under an assumed name in Odessa enjoying the secret protection of the Tsar.

Princess Diana Emerald Chocker.
A little bit of history

The chocker is known as Disco Di. This was an art-deco chocker which was left to the Queen but she never wore it. In 1981 she took it out of storage and gave it to the Princess of Wales as a wedding gift. That December the Princess had the 14” chocker mounted on a band of dark green Velcro so that she could wear it as a hair band at a private party. Instead of a tiara she wore it as a necklace across her forehead as a bandeau. She wore it for the first time in public at a charity dance on a visit to Australia in 1984.

The Godman Necklace
A little bit of history

The Godman necklace which was thought to have a royal provenance had been bought by Fredrick DuCann whilst on holiday in Bavaria in 1890’s. He gave it to his two daughters in 1965.

Long after his death the elderly spinsters wrote to the Lord Chamberlain saying that they believed that they owned a piece of jewellery that belonged to the Empress Josephine of France, and that it may be of interest to her Majesty.

Sir Francis Watson, surveyor for the Queen’s works of art met with them at their bank where the necklace was stored in a vault.

It could never be proved that the necklace ever belonged to Empress Josephine, but despite the lack of royal connection, the misses Godman said that they would like to present the necklace to the Queen, requesting that she wears it occasionally.

The Queen was delighted to add the necklace to her collection and as a “thank you” the spinsters were invited to a private audience with the Queen.
