this picture of Queen Victoria with the emerald necklace and tiara (not the brooch - like the pic of George Koberwein) from my website, was a present to Baron Stockmar and ist now also owned by his family.
There is a picture of Q-Mum with a necklace in size and design like this:

: None of which is listed in the 1896
: Inventory of her Jewels, which indicates

: Does anyone have a picture of the tiara
