Princess Irene seems to own two tiaras: the circle tiara and the diamond and pearl necklace/tiara.
I found this picture of her and Sofia both in eveningwear. Sofia is wearing the Prussian tiara but i don't recognise the tiara Irene is wearing.

: It seems that the small circle diamond tiara
: from Queen Sophie might have been inherited
: by Princess Irene, logical since her older
: sister Sofia was presented with the prussian
: tiara and the grander jewels went to the
: Queens.
:
: Infanta Elena aparently borrowd it from her
: aunt to wear at the prewedding gala of
: Frederick of Wurtemberg and Marie of Wied in
: 1993, it was the first time this tiara was
: seen since the 1960's.

: Or perhaps there are a few pieces not worn
: for
: awhile which are intended for Philippos and
: Theodora - something from Irene, perhaps?
: Or something from Queen Ingrid which hasn't
: yet been worn by the recipient?
:
: And do we know if Tatiana received anything?

: Thanks Clemetine for the lovely picture of
: Princess Alexia.
: The information I have is that this tiara
: was an 18th anniversary gift from her
: parents and was purchased for her. I have no
: information on the jeweler that made it, nor
: if it was new or purchased on an auction of
: classical jewels.
: I find it a lovely classical style diamond
: tiara for a young princess.
:
: I always wonder why the King and Queen never
: did the same for their youngest daughter
: Princess Theodora. Although she has far
: diferent interests than attending galas, she
: did had to borrow the danish turquoise tiara
: from her aunt recently. There seems to be a
: lack of smaller tiaras for the younger
: princesses. I will assume that Princess
: Marie Chantal will wear the fabulous diamond
: tiara of Queen Sophie on grand ocasions from
: now on, and her own fringe tiara for lesser
: ocasions. Princess Alexia has her own tiara.
: So, Princesses Theodora, Tatiana and the
: future wife of Prince Philipos will have to
: share the corsage tiara or borrow some from
: aunt Margareth...
: Anyway perhaps they will not attend gala
: events at the same time, so they can share.

: There's a debate on Facebook (Royal Jewels
: Fan
: Club) about the diamond tiara worn by the
: princess on each royal events for many
: years. Is it a Greek royal family heirloom,
: since I can't find any picture of her mother
: the Queen Anne-Marie wearing it ? Or was it
: purchased ?
