Correct. IF Princess Irene was wearing a riviere which is a remnant of the said necklace, it must have been the 'base' which was basically a riviere of diamonds as you can see in the picture provided above. We know the logenze/pentagon elements have been removed and used to create a tiara together with the sapphire necklace so the large ornament must also have been detached. Other possibility is that the riviere was made using the diamonds from the base of the tiara. --Previous Message-- : Eerm... I understood "the rivière : Princess Irene wore was the necklace of this : parure". In my understanding a rivière : is a simple collier, so it can only have : been the base of the collier? :
