Claes, will you be willing to share the list of Princess Ingrid's wedding gifts with us?? I am trying to track all the jewels that her daughters inherited and who owns it now..so that would greatly help me If not, I'll understand. --Previous Message-- : 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. : : --Previous Message-- : In the latest issue of lovely Swedish royal : mag Kungliga Magasinet , which I just : received, there's a whole lot of info & : pics to enjoy! : I shared some of my first impresions here: : : : http://members3.boardhost.com/scandinavia/msg/1395927055.html : Among the things I loved reading was the : fact that Princess Benedikte, being one of : Princess Madeleine's sponsors, intentionally : used Queen Sofia's star tiara on Madeleine's : wedding day last year. : Princess Benedikte inherited this tiara from : her Swedish-born mother Ingrid, who received : it as a wedding present from King Gustav V : of Sweden at the time of her May 1935 : wedding to Crown Prince Frederik (the later : King Frederik IX) of Denmark. : Great pics in this mag and much info! : Highly recommended : : :
