As far as i can see the tiara has only been worn with the seven prongs and the agraitte with 9 prongs. It would be interesting to see Queen Maxima wearing the complete parure. .
--Previous Message-- : Yes there most certainly are two seperate : Peacock Tail Motif elements (one with nine : and one with seven prongs) as Irene has been : photographed wearing both of them (one as a : brooch) at the same time. Question remains : whether both could be worn in the tiara. : : --Previous Message-- : I think Johan is right, that there were : original 4 parts. : : tiara : necklace : brooch : aigrette : : That would explain the difference between : the diamonds on the aigrette and on the : tiara element! : : Perhaps HRH Princess Irene still has the : necklace and the aigrette and gave/sold/?? : the tiara and brooch to the foundation. : : : : :
