Princess Ragnhild was not that happy about the Crown Prince Wedding ! What I don't understand Princess Margaretha of Luxembourg/ Liechtenstein was Princess Margaretha of Denmark 's Godchild (same name) such as Princess Ragnhild. She should receive her great grandmother 's tiara. --Previous Message-- : To me it doesn’t seem such a surprise that we : haven’t seen this tiara again by now, as I : don’t think that two years is such a long : time. They probably wouldn’t want to be seen : as greedily grabbing at their dead relatives : jewels. So I believe that the NRF will let : the tiara lie in the vault for several more : years before it is worn again. : : Maybe they will even keep it for Ingrid : Alexandra : : : --Previous Message-- : This State banquet makes me think about the : jewels of the late Princess Ragnhild of : Norway, Mrs Lorentzen (eldest sister of King : Harald V and of Princess Astrid, Mrs : Ferner). : : It was said that Queen Maud's diamond tiara, : worn throughout her life by Princess : Ragnhild, would revert to the main line of : the Royal Family (i.e. to the King). : : Princess Ragnhild died two years ago (16th : September 2012), but so far, we have still : not seen the tiara again. : : Do you think we will see Queen Maud's : diamond tiara again? How reliable is the : information that the main royal jewels of : the King's sisters should revert to him : after their death? : Trond Norén Isaksen's blog is very : affirmative about this family agreement (he : had personal talks with Princess Astrid, who : explicitely told him that her turquoise and : diamond parure and the Vasa tiara would go : to the King after her death, but I do not : know if he had similar talks with Princess : Ragnhild): : : : http://trondni.blogspot.fr/2012/10/royal-jewels-queen-mauds-grand-diamond.html : I consider Trond Norén Isaksen to be a : reliable source of information, but I am : puzzled anyway by the fact that the tiara : was still not seen, two years after Princess : Ragnhild's death. : : : : : : : --Previous Message-- : The President of India is currently making a : State visit to Norway - the first ever by an : Indian President. : : Yesterday, the traditional State banquet : took place at Oslo's Royal Palace. : : Nothing really new on the jewels' side : (Queen Sonja with the Leuchtenberg emeralds, : Crown Princess Mette-Marit with her usual : Daisy Tiara, Princess Astrid Mrs Ferner with : her Ruby Aigrette), but it is always a : pleasure to see Scandinavian pageantry! : : : : We can notice that Queen Sonja is wearing a : pearl bracelet with a rectangular emerald : and diamond clasp. She had worn this : bracelet at Crown Princess Victoria of : Sweden's wedding in 2010: : : : : I think that the emerald and diamond clasp : can also be mounted as the clasp of a pearl : choker: : : : : : : : :
