I have to agree. Not impressed with the design and execution. The v shaped design never works for me and these swirls and all these whiter than white diamonds of equal size with masses of small sapphires makes it even less appealing to me. The earrings? In one word: odd. I suspect the tiara does not look good on her. As a necklace it did not match or complement the wearer either. Keep it on display as a nice work of craftsmanship and a reminder that that alone does not make a stunning piece of jewellery. --Previous Message-- : I have the faint idea that the tiara with its : subtle sapphires in the swirling 'wave' : motif might actually look very appealing, : but since the piece was only worn once as : necklace so far, the idea of how it looks as : tiara remains faint indeed. : While I like the idea of long, dangling : earrings, their bottom-heavy pendulum design : does not echo the tiara in the best fashion, : I'd say... : Princess Letizia and Princess Charlene seem : determined to compete in setting the record : of who leaves a new tiara unworn the longest : - one gathers dust in the vaults, the other : is permanently on display, and both facts : are decidedly absurd. : I just hope that whoever owns the Swedish : pink tormaline tiara now will not join this : contest. : : : : : --Previous Message-- : : : --Previous Message-- : This tiara doesn't look like much.
