Thank you all so much for the photos and the work of research that you take on. I can tell you that as a poster you are what makes it worthwhile to look at the board each day. --Previous Message-- : This is the best I could find- Princess : Christian is third from the right in the : front row of the royal box- it looks quite a : substantial tiara. Thanks to our dear Nellie : on the Royal Coronations Message Board. : : : http://members.boardhost.com/coronation/msg/1362236732.html : : --Previous Message-- : I found some further information on the : exhibition referred to in Dawn's first post. : It states that the tiaras displayed are to : be worn at the coronation (1911). Can : anybody find a photo of Princess Christian : at this coronation? : I'm struggling!! : : --Previous Message-- : Dear Laura : The English translation on the link I : provided suggests (in my interpretation) : that the photo shows Princess Helena wearing : the turquoise tiara, necklace and earrings : in addition to the crescent brooch. I agree : this design does not fit the exhibition : description. It sounds as if this were : magnificent parure- surely this would have : passed to one of her daughters? : : : --Previous Message-- : The picture is illustrating the diamond : crescent brooch which was a wedding gift and : is not illustrating the turquoise parure. : : : : : : :
