The tiara no doubt was inspired by Queen Alexandras but it certainly is not it. The band is vastly inferior to the Queens in size of stone and workmanship. --Previous Message-- : Could this tiara be Queen Alexandra's tiara : from her wedding gift parure (frequently : known as the Rundell tiara)? : : http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=278185&d=1311276233 : It's very similar to Queen Alexandra's : tiara, I can see only some differences in : the base (which could have been altered). : There's both yellow and white gold, but I : think we don't know the exact color of the : queen's tiara since photographs at that time : where only black and white. : Now we know that Princess Victoria inherited : the tiara, so she could have sold it. : Sorry if that question was already posted. :
