Is this a gift to her directly or a loan for her exclusive use (like Pcess Mary's midnight tiara)? --Previous Message-- : "The diadem is produced in 925 Sterling : silver with 25 amethysts, which is HRH : Princess Marie's favorite stone, and more : than 50 small diamonds that sits at the tip : of the flower dust catchers in the French : lily." : : : --Previous Message-- : As you can read in the first post from EricS : in the tiara's description, the base is made : of cabochon amethysts. : Amethysts are also dangling at the bottom of : the earrings. : : I find them odd too, like an afterthought to : lend the tiara more substance; they're : disconnected from the flowers above, and I : don't quite understand why amethysts weren't : used in the flowers as well (perhaps in the : stamens) in order to make the design more : cohesive. : : : --Previous Message-- : Are those pierced cabochon saphires in the : base of the tiara? I think I would prefer it : without this base... : : : : : --Previous Message-- : I actually wonder why Princess Marie didn't : debut her new tiara (and matching earrings : which apparently form a set - see below) at : the state banquet for the Chinese President; : with everyone else choosing their less grand : jewelry, it would have been a fitting : occasion to do so. : : : : : : : --Previous Message-- : Ah ok, I searched the archive to see if this : was already posted but couldn't find : anything on it. : : : : : : : : : : :
