You are right Nelly. source the Royal Collection : A special exhibition for the Summer Opening of the State Rooms, Buckingham Palace, 2006 http://www.royalcollection.org.uk/microsites/dressfortheoccasion/object.asp?exhibs=BPSO2006jewellery&item=2 Aquamarine and diamond tiara - Garrards " When first made in 1957, the tiara consisted of the three upright rectangular stones (detachable for use as brooches), mounted on a simple platinum band. The large central stone was originally the pendant of the necklace given to The Queen by the President and People of Brazil in 1953 as a Coronation present. In 1971 the tiara was adapted to take FOUR SCROLLS ornaments from an aquamarine and diamond jewel given to The Queen by the Governor of São Paulo in 1968." In 1970 july QEII wore a small aquamarine and diamonds tiare ( but no scrolls ) - gettyimages - 83494497 " Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip leave Yellowknife City Hall in the Northwest Territories during a royal tour of Canada." It seems that this is the tiara worm by the Countess of Wessex. But the design is not the same scroll adapted on Brazilian tiare ? An other tiare ? enlarge
