    Maybe the the top row from Mabels tiara is the same but the smaller stones are much smaller than Maximas tiara imo.

    : Johan you are right and we only have to count
    : the diamonds in Mabels tiara to know for
    : shure.
    : These are exactly the same gradualy
    : "growing" diamonds as the top row
    : of diamonds and exactly the same amount of
    : them to!

    : To me the second setting looks like the top
    : row of diamond of the normal tiara. Maybe a
    : few additions, but most of them, certainly
    : the bigger ones look exacly like those in
    : the saphire tiara.

    : It has never been stated or confirmed that
    : they actually reset the stones from this
    : tiara in the second setting. It's possible
    : yes, but they could very well use different
    : stones.

    : With Queen Maxima's appearance, if one looks
    : at the extremely large inauguration photo
    : posted on the Royal House's website, it
    : doesn't look like the tiara itself is askew,
    : but rather the central sapphire and the
    : smaller sapphires immediately above and
    : below it are crooked by about two degrees
    : counterclockwise. Perhaps a goof by the
    : jeweller who may have hastily re-assembled
    : the tiara after Princess Mabel's appearance
    : the night before?

    : What a pity that little care seems to be
