    Sold? That is completely new to me. Does anybody have more information.

    : Thank you Monica, lovely picture of Queen
    : Frederika, I've never seen it before.
    :
    : She is wearing the fabulous (and thank
    : heavens still in the family) diamond tiara
    : that was a wedding gift to Queen Sophia. A
    : truly stunning and regal piece.
    : The Queen is also wearing her diamond bow
    : brooch, I'm not sure if it has some small
    : pendant hanging. The earrings are of
    : diamonds and rubis, I'm not sure of their
    : present wereabouts, but Queen Sofia and
    : Princess Letizia have worn similar ones but
    : Don't know if exactly the same.
    :
    : The nacklace can be worn as a tiara
    : (Princess Irene wore it like that several
    : times), and the center motif can be removed
    : and worn as a brooch. Also this necklace has
    : not been seen since the 1960's, so I'm
    : keeping my fingers crossed and hoping that
    : it would be in some vault all this time and
    : would reapear soon like the impressive
    : diamond tiara . Really hope still is in the
    : family.
