    Cristina, the only picture I can find is this one, but I am not sure wether it really is the converted tiara:

    : Yes, Raine Spencer wore the Honeysuckle
    : Diamond Tiara at least once. Some years ago
    : I saw in an old Hola magazine from the early
    : 1980's a picture of Raine and her husband
    : Earl Spencer leaving for a gala event, she
    : was wearing the honeysuckle tiara (the most
    : recent version of it, as displayed in the
    : Spencer jewels exibition) and the diamond
    : pendants (now hanging from the Spencer
    : diamond riviére) as earrings.
    :
    : I have no information on the provenance of
    : the pearl and diamond tiara she is wearing
    : on the picture, but I am sure it can be
    : converted to necklace. Raine wore it as
    : necklace for King Constantine of Greece 50th
    : birthday party along with the Spencer
    : diamond pendants as earrings.

    : Dawn, you're right.
    : I only vaguely remember (from a book I
    : suppose) that Raine Countess Spencer
    : infrequently wore the Spencer Honeysuckle
    : Diamond Tiara. But I have no proof for that

    : No, I don't see (so far) any published
    : picture
    : of Raine, Countess Spencer wearing the
    : Spencer family tiara. Only Lady Jane
    : Fellowes, Lady Sarah McCorquodale, Princess
    : Diana and Victoria (the current Earl
    : Spencer's 1st wife) wore that tiara.
