Thanks for the explanation Barabara, what a lovely way to show your wish list.
The one I am looking forward to seeing is the Durbar tiara.
(are you in the UK so will you get to the Palace yourself ?)

: Thank you all for your kind words of
: appreciation! I'm happy you like the banner
: !

: @LittleMo: You're right, some of the items
: are on display at BP's exhibition, yet not
: all. The Greville tiara isn't, as well as
: the Nizam of Hyderabad Roses (the remains
: of that lovely tiara...), the Lover's Knot
: brooch, the Nizam of Hyderabad Necklace and
: the Maple Leaf brooch aren't on display
: either. Yet the Coronation necklace, the
: Coronation earrings, the Williamson brooch
: and HM's 'Best Diamonds', the South Africa
: necklace and bracelet (the banner contains
: only the necklace) are included in the
: exhibition.

: The banner can somehow be read as a part of
: my 'wish-list' for the exhibition - albeit
: an interesting and (at least for me) quite
: misterious piece is missing: The Cockade
: brooch... (I haven't found a fitting image
: to use in the banner). I still lament the
: total lack of information about this jewel
: in Robert's book (it is pictured several
: times but never mentioned) and am afraid,
: that the Souvenir Album from the Royal
: Collection won't provide more information
: about it, too.
