Separate the outer upright leaf parts from their pieces. Place just the leaf uprights at either end of the central part. The whole thing would be narrower but more balanced. And lower it all to sit closer to the head. Use the four leftover pieces elsewhere in the hair or... Brooches or clips or something. --Previous Message-- : Thanks Josefine for these photos : : I never realized (as many times we have : discussed it) what a big gap there is : between the base of the tiara and that ugly : gold frame...I would just add simple strand : of diamonds and just that would make the : look more complete..and it would cover up : all the visible welded spots : : The elements themselves are quite : beautiful..however, design needed better : execution to give more balanced, finished : look : : Hopefully one day she'll redesign this : tiara. : : : : --Previous Message-- : Thank you Josefine.
