The article says that coins from : the deposit of the (Danish) National Bank : have been used for the Queen's jewellery - : meaning the pieces already made. : : : Maridje - thank you for posting the article! : I had never read that the tiara can be : divided into brooches, it isn't mentioned in : the interview with Nicolai Appel neither. : : : --Previous Message-- : It'a a hair comb, but the set can be divided : in 5 brooch. : : : : http://www.bt.dk/royale/dronningen-fik-groenlandsk-guldgave : : traduction google : : Greenland have given the Queen a diadem on : the occasion of her 40th royal jubilee. : Although gold is Greenlandic. : : The Queen was a jewelry richer today: : Greenland Home Rule Government has gifted : monarch with a tiara on the occasion of her : 40th anniversary as ruler.
