Provenance: Present to the Danish actress, Louise Jacobson, née Larcher (1834–1922) from Tsar Nicholas II of Russia in the early 1890s. Louise Jacobson was married to the Danish Admiral Georges Jacobson (1832–1897), who was also hunting captain for King Christian IX of Denmark. Thus, Louise and Georges Jacobson were part of the Royal Danish Court. Tsar Nicholas II of Russia gave the brooch as a present during one of his travels to Denmark, visiting his grandparents, Queen Louise and King Christian IX of Denmark. Thence by descents to Georges and Louise Jacobsen's great-granddaughter with residence in Denmark, until today.
