    Sadly, no.

    For King Harald's 70th birthday in 2007 Countess Madeleiene wore a Diamond tiara which was confirmed to be borrowed from a (maternal) von Rosen relative. Perhaps the gold tiara worn for Crown Prince Haakon's 18th birthday was also borrowed.

    : The occasion is, if I recall correctly, the
    : January 1961 wedding of Princess Astrid of
    : Norway (her cousin) to Johan Martin Ferner.
    : The other couple is Princess Dagmar of
    : Denmark (great-aunt to both Astrid and
    : Madeleine) and her husband Jørgen
    : Castenskiold. She is wearing a tiara
    : nowadays often worn by Princess Marie of
    : Denmark (wife of Prince Joachim).

    : You could be right Hans, I've just found a
    : pic
    : of a young Countess Madeleine wearing this
    : tiara at a diferent ocasion. It was worn
    : exactly the same way, closed as a small
    : coronet on top of her head. Perhaps its not
    : flexible and is the only way it can be worn?
    : It could indeed be from Pss Ingeborg, but
    : what tiara coul it be? I cannot identifiy it
    : as any of the tiaras I know from Pss
    : Ingeborg. It does not look like any of the
    : two I mentioned in the above posts, the
    : small flower motifs at the front are very
    : diferent. It could also come from her
    : mother, Elsa von Rosen.

    : I don't know for certain how many jewels
    : from
    : Pss Ingeborg did Countess Kristin wear/have
