    we always are so anxious to see jewels that have languished in the vaults to see the light of day again.....but here are two pieces that i for one hope stay hidden.

    : Are you sure you want to see them? It's
    : absolutely ghastly and a waste of money.

    : One is a helmet with removable 'tiara' by
    : famed Dutch Designer Ted Nooten:

    : The other is a gilded contraption with a fly
    : curtain in front by jeweller designer Jos
    : van den Elzen.

    : Would someone please be so kind and post a
    : picture of this head piece? Never heard of
    : it!

    : She was handed her unwearable helmet and
    : that
    : was the last we've seen of it. I hope HRH
    : will one day have the guts to melt the
    : horrid piece and use it and the diamonds in
    : it for a wearable tiara.

    : We all know that a 'tiara' can be many
    : things
    : - think of Queen Margrethe, Queen Sonja,
    : Crown Princess Maxima, Crown Princess Mary,
    : Princess Marie of Denmark's modern tiaras...
    :
    : Queen Elizabeth strikes me as quite
    : conservative when it comes to jewellery - I
    : am not sure HM would wear a tiara like the
    : one Crown Princess Maxima received when HRH
    : got married...
    :
    : in 1963 I am not sure the world was as
    : 'visual' as it is today! so perhaps that is
    : the reason Martin has heard about the tiara
    : - but we have never seen it - as far as I
    : know Crown Princess Maxima has not worn her
    : modern tiara either
