It just hit me that Queen Sonja's tiara has letter "M" in the center..for Maud love it.
--Previous Message-- : For a comparison: look at the diadem of Queen : Sonja of Norway in the first post, it has : four nice large diamonds in front (the : central prong) all others are smaller : brilliants. The diadem by Princess M�xima is : studded with all the size of Sonja's largest : diamonds... The other diadems in the first : post all have smaller diamonds. : : Unfortunately the diadem from the Mellerio : ruby parure gives Princess M�xima a sort of : devil's appearance (horns). On Queen Juliana : this effect was not so big, the diadem was : far more fitting on her than on M�xima. : : I hope Gert-Jan does allow me to repost his : spectacular pictures... Compare the stones: : M�xima : : : Sonja : : : : : : : : : :
