The Indian word 'durbar' means both a gathering of chieftans to make administrative decisions, and a purely ceremonial gathering at which they paid homage to their ruler. Queen Mary wore this when she and her husband, King George V, went to India for their acclamation as Emperor and Empress.
The necklace is silver plated, set with Austrian crystals, and has an adjustable chain with a crab claw catch.
