That's what I thought as well. Do we finally have a Dutch mystery tiara for a change?! Speaking of which I would like to consider an other mystery tiara of sorts as a possible match with Armgard's. Queen Emma's wearing a delicate tiara (with pearls?) at the 1926 festivities for the Silver wedding of Queen Wilhelmina. Unfortunately the quality of the photo is not great... Any better ones out there? href="http://s8.photobucket.com/albums/a21/johnravenweb/?action=view¤t=25jaarhuwelijkWH.jpg" target="_blank"> Geheugen van Nederland --Previous Message-- : I don't think this Abel-Smith piece is what : Armgard wore in 1962.
