Re: Diamond and Pearl tiara of Queen Maria Christina? Archived Message

Queen Maria Cristina's pearl tiara is a favourite of mine, I find it really beautiful, imposing yet light.
    
I think Queen Letizia will have the same "problem" with this tiara as with the Ansorena Fleur-de-Lys tiara (from Queen Ena), they seem to be too big for her small head size. The Ansorena tiara can be worn in a closed version (I assume she will have to wear it this way), but I don´t know how "closed" can the pearl tiara be worn.
Well, at some point she will have to wear some of the bigger tiaras, so lets wait and see how she will pull it off.
As to Infanta Elena I don't think she will atend any more state dinners, she is no longer part of the Royal family (only the kings family). If such an ocasion happens (royal visit or other more significant event) she will most certainly wear the Marichalar tiara she has always worn since her wedding and is her personal property (it was a wedding gift from her (ex)husband family).

: What about the diamond and pearl tiara of
: Queen Maria Christina? It is a large but
: light tiara and a very historic one. That
: would leave the floral and the shell tiara
: for Queen Sofia and Infanta Elena if they
: were to attend.

: On Hola magazine's article regarding the new

: would have said: "Es preciosa!"
: (Its beautiful!) when seing this tiara for
: the first time...
:
: Only time will tell, but the begining of the

: Queen to wear it for the first time. It is

: Was it ever officially confirmed that Queen

:
: We know that the diamond fleur-de-lys exists
: and has been regularly used as a brooch. But

: seen it, nor did we have a confirmation from
: the Casa Real about this supposed gift from

: I remain puzzled by the very clumsy design

: You are right Stefan, I was forgetting the

: I would be a nice statement for the new

: Previously she only wore the fleur de lys
: central motif as a brooch. I'm keeping my

: The floral wreath tiara suits Letizia

: I would not expect any outstanding glitter

: But the Queen has plenty of more modern

:
: I'm certainly not expecting Queen Letizia to
: wear the "joyas de pasar", I'm
: guesing they are reserved for visits from
: reigning monarchs or specially important
: visits. Thats when Queen Sofia wore them
: also.
:
: My guess would be the floral tiara (that
: suits her wonderfuly), her wedding earrings,
: perhaps a diamond bracelet. Not sure she
: will wear a necklace, it would depend also
: on the cleavage of her chosen dress.
:
:
:
: But I really would love to see her wear
: again the Foam Waves tiara, worn only once
: as Pss of Astúrias.
:
:
:
: The Prussian tiara she wore as bride doesn't
: suit her so well, imho.
:
: Lets see what smaller tiara Queen Letizia
: will borrow from Queen Sofia (as we know
: these tiaras are personal property of the
: former Queen).

: It is, to say the truth, hardly a surprise.
: Letizia, Mathilde and Maxima all follow,
: jewellerywise, the path that they had
: already followed when they were Crown
: princesses - and, to some extent, the trend
: set by their respective forerunners.
:
: I agree with Gert-Jan: on the chapter of
: jewels, Maxima is the best! It is not just
: that she wears the jewels that are at her
: disposal. She visibly enjoys wearing jewels,
: she loves playing with them and taking
: advantage of their potential of versatility,
: and she adds new pieces to the collection! A
: true delight for this board!
:
: Regarding Queen Letizia, and the level of
: glitter which should be the "rule"
: for King Philip VI's reign, we should have
: an idea very soon: as posted by Pedro on the
: GREMB, the President of Chile, Michelle
: Bachelet, is scheduled to pay a state visit
: to Spain at the end of this month of
: October:
