Thank you Mimi for posting these pics of the unfortunate Duchess's jewels. I have been searching for a while for pictures of Duchess Sophie with her jewels and this pic is new to me, its fabulous and her jewelry is wonderful. As it was already stated the necklace is not the current Hohenberg tiara (this one comes from Archduchess Maria Anunziata) but its a fantastic piece. A pity all the jewels were sold after the tragedy, but Money was needed for the 3 children... The Duchess seemed to have owned also a saphire parure, that I have never seen any pic or portrait of. --Previous Message-- : Hi!!! : : I wonder if someone here knows what happened : with the jewelry of the duchess after her : assasination in 1914, in special this pieces : of jewelry. : : : : : : : : : : Thanks so much in advanced!!! :
