The answer to that is easy enough. The silver and opal necklace that Katie is cursed with in the chapter Silver and Opals in HBP chapter 12 (pg. 248-252 HBP, scholastic) is the same necklace mentioned on page 52 of chapter 4 Flourish and Blotts from COS (Scholastic).
This entire scene seems to have been transplanted intact from its planned place in the orig draft of novel 2, except for minor details such as Leanne replacing Alica or Angelina. (Leanne has the biggest walk on part in all the series, I'm sure we will never see her again!)
This is another example of a subtle Chekov's Gun. Another is prob. the locket Ginny cleaned in OOTP which nearly everyone seems to think is the real Slytherin Horcrux.
What do you think
