Provenance
Princess Feodora of Saxe-Meiningen (1890–1972), who after marriage was known as Grand Duchess of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach
Feodora is depicted wearing lot 50 amongst a profusion of other jewels, possibly on the occasion of her marriage in 1910 to Grand Duke Wilhelm Ernst of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach. At the end of World War I Wilhelm Ernst was forced to relinquish his throne and lands and moved with his wife and four children from the Grand Ducal Palace in Weimar to a family estate in Silesia; Feodora outlived her husband by almost half a century.
