Nellie-yes I did mean the tiara that is third in your post. I would say this has to be the tiara in the cigarette card you discovered. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9b/The_Coronation_Ceremony_of_His_Most_Gracious_Majesty_King_George_V_in_Westminster_Abbey._22nd_June_1911_by_John_Henry_Frederick_Bacon.jpg I have found a painting of the coronation of King George V and Queen Mary, please see the link.I think it may have been done from the photograph I linked earlier. If we could find a colour/clearer/larger image of this we may be able to establish which tiara Princess Christian is wearing. The artists details are within the link. The tiara does appear to have some upright "spikes" from the black and White image. Princess Christian is third from right in the royal box behind Queen Mary --Previous Message-- : Thank you all for your detailed info on this : subject. : I also always thought that this tiara (the : third one) was a pearl tiara, Ps Marie : Louise is wearing it with several rows of : pearls.
