    Oh dear...is the engagement gift headgear wearable at all??? And there are two of those "modern design head...things" if I am correct... both unwearable.

    Apart the grander tiaras, reserved to HM, she had many chances to wear the Ears-of-Wheat and the Laurel Leaf but it seems she really does'nt favour these pieces. Perhaps Pss Máxima does not like vegetable motifs tiaras.
    As to the Van Kempen, it would be really fabulous if she could get it out of the vaults and worn again! If Queen Willermina's diamond haircomb has seen the light of day again after 100 years why not the Van Kempen?

    I'm keeping my fingers crossed, I'm positive we'll get to see it some day .
