The huge sapphire diadem worn by Fürstin Gloria resembles the broken-up diadem of the Wedding Gift Parure 1901. The Dutch diadem has been broken up to create personal bijoux. The Thurn und Taxis diadem has been auctioned off, I believe. In both cases no tears needed. Those diamond-studded bicycle racks were out of any proportion, top-heavy and esthetically awful.
