The first chain has a pendant of a spotted heifer in a round border in blue enamel. This one is attached to two chains ending by two open work flowers pendants. The third item is a delicate butterfly-shaped clasp made from thin gold leaf.

On the top, there are small gold birds which were ornaments that adorned the princess’ hair. The second chain consists of a series of pendants in the form of shells and two large five-pointed stars. The third chain is a series of pendants in the shape of stylized bees.
