    Yes it does look like the brooch but stuck on a silk bandeau? Well it remains a bit of a mystery.

    : Thanks for the picture i could zoom in on. Now
    : it's clear that the central part of the
    : hairornament is the brooch of the emerald
    : parure. It's the same element that is part
    : of the necklace and explains why Wilhelmina
    : is wearing the emerald, diamond and pearl
    : brooch with this set as she is wearing the
    : actual brooch of the parure in her hair.
    : Considering that Juliana is only wearing a
    : few stars in her hair makes me feel that
    : Wilhelmina is wearing a silk bandeau with
    : the brooch of the emerald parure in the
    : centre.
