I just saw on the internet a movie about the wedding of HRH Princess Margriet & Pieter van Vollenhoven in the sixties. HRH Princess Margriet wore the pearl button tiara very regal and very lovely.
I have a question about the origin of this tiara, it was once said on this board that the diamond base was maybe from the leaf-coronet of Queen Sophie of the Netherlands but the design is different and if it was the diamond tiara of Sophie, why was it not seen for years?
Could it be that the base was original from another nobel house? Lippe perhaps? The tiara was first seen on Princess Armgard, quite strange to pop-up on a lady who is not a member of the royal house.
