    Im not a fan of the small cut steel tiara either. I think it would have made a nice first tiara for Estelle (i prefer it to Victoria's first tiara), but it doesn't look good on the crownprincess who has grown into herself and can now wear some of the grandest pieces in the collection without them wearing her (think of Marie-Chantal and the spectecular reappearance of the Greek Diamond tiara, not a good match either).

    : I like both Cut Steel Tiaras. So unique!
    : However I agree the small one is not very
    : glitsy. She could have opted to wear the
    : grander tiara the first day and then the
    : second evening the smaller. Now that's a
    : statement. The large Cut Steel tiara looks
    : magnificant on HRH.

    : Sorry, I don't like this tiara. It look
    : terrible on Victoria. Maybe it would be
    : better as a necklace...

    : Swedish writer Roger Lundgren related
    : recently
    : how he was told by a courtier that the small
    : cut steel tiara had been lingering in the
    : Swedish royal vault for a long time; more
    : information is certainly needed here, but it
    : doesn't seem to be a new acquisition.

    : Below, a better close up of CP Victoria from
    : last night.
    : Interestingly, the Court’s official website
    : refers to the small cut steel tiara as ‘a
    : private tiara’, the same expression used for
    : the diamond fringe tiara worn by Princess
    : Madeleine yesterday which is the personal
    : property of Queen Silvia, so the ‘new’ cut
    : steel tiara is not part of the Bernadotte
    : Foundation.

    : CP Victoria also wore the matching haircomb
    : in the back, but far less prominent than
    : last time – see the second pic.

    : Much better without a big diamond necklace.

    : I have a question : Could it be Princess
    : Estelle's birth gift from Prince Daniel??
    : Pure suggestion !

    : Thanks Boris I am stating to like this cut
    : steel tiara 2nd time around...definitely

    :
    : Its funny, usually split in the middle of
    : the hairdo doesn't work on any tiaras..but
    : it works on this pointy style tiara.
