Interesting use of the base (putting another tiara on top) but that doesn't look like the Surrey tiara in the 2nd photograph, even to my untrained eyes - too many festoons and non-linear elements. It must be yet another of QM's wedding swag which was either reworked or is languishing in a vault somewhere.
