    I wonder if they ever tried the base of that tiara with the diamond rose brooches...They are exquisite. On that note I hope the Queen will wear them someday in which ever way.

    : I have to say the buttons work much better as
    : brooches and clasps of bracelets. I've never
    : been a big fan of the pearl button tiara, it
    : looked ok on the big hairstyles of Juliana
    : and Beatrix but on Maxima it looks bad. With
    : several other pearl tiara's i'd prefer to
    : see a new use of the base (not a fan of the
    : current version of the star tiara either).
    : Maybe they could use some of the saphires to
    : create a second smaller saphire tiara and
    : return the necklace of Emma to it's original
    : use.
