Radama, the tiara you're referring to is an ears-of-wheat tiara. Lorenzo and I were thinking of a different piece from a different branch, the Hesse-Darmstadts.
Lorenzo, as soon as I read your post I immediately doubted myself and hurried over to my book collection. I thought, "he must be right, didn't I see this gorgeous piece at the V&A?" I couldn't spend too much time on it last night.
Sorry for my set-in-stone comment about it being destroyed. I could have sworn I'd read that factoid.
