Thanks for this post. But I thought Princess Ingrid inherited the tiara from her paternal grandmother Queen Victoria. I have read the last will made by Queen Victoria.
Swedish papers and magazines writes a lot about the wedding gifts to then Princess Ingrid in 1935, but no note about this tiara.
And King Gustaf V gave to his granddaughter Princess Ingrid the big jewel which today is wearing as tiara by Queen Anne Marie of Greece, her daughter and daughter-in-laws.
