Thank you Baxter! Finally I see a picture of this small tiara in colour, its a pretty piece I think. In both captions the Duchess seems to be wearing the exact outfit, orders and jewels, however my pic cames from a report of an event in 1987 (just confirmed it in Hola magazine) and your caption states it as taking place in 1982 . Most likely this is the same event (and only time the Duchess wore this tiara) and perhaps there was some confusion with the date. I will keep digging in my old files (mostly still on paper) and see what "rarities" I can find. Thanks to our fellow poster Mauriz, who very generously gave me the tips for posting pics here, I am thrilled for beeing able to share many more jewelry pics with the members of this wonderful board! --Previous Message-- : : Cristina, thanks for that photo (and all the : others you have recently posted).
