Stig kindly posted several pictures of Princess Caroline-Mathilde on the Scandinavian board, as rememberance of the princess centenary.
One of the pictures, I had never seen, shows her saphire tiara, inherited from her aunt Princess Thyra, with the saphires replaced. Are those stones turquoises or are they pearls? Is this the tiara called as "the saphire/turquoise tiara" on a thread below?
This was the first picture I saw of this tiara been worn with other than the saphires as center of the diamond elements.
Also her beautiful diamond earrings in that picture are not familiar to me. Does someone knows which of her children is the present owner? I don't seem to remember Princess Elizabeth wearing these.
