Arthur - I love your suggestions!! I do hope that staff follow this board and will pick up your ideas and pass them on.
It would be a feast, and a change from the recurring themes over the years.

: As I suggested in an earlier thread a few
: months ago, I would be glad to see the Baden
: Fringe Tiara worn as a necklace - it was
: worn as a necklace by Queen Victoria of
: Sweden (King Gustaf V's wife, née Princess
: of Baden), as shown on the picture below. I
: think it would make a great combination with
: Queen Sofia's Nine-Prong Tiara.
:
:
:
: For the second day, I would be delighted if
: Queen Silvia wore Princess Margaretha of
: Connaught's Boucheron Scarab Necklace, which
: was once owned (and frequently owned) by
: Princess Lilian, and that was bequeathed by
: Lilian to the Queen. The Connaught Diamond
: Tiara or the Connaught Ruby Tiara would be a
: nice match with this necklace. A good option
: for the Queen for the 11th December.
:
:
:
: More generally, I would love to see more
: jewels of the late Princess Lilian. Crown
: Princess Victoria could give a second outing
: to Princess Lilian's Laurel-wreath Tiara. I
: also would love to see Princess Lilian's
: pearl and diamond bow brooch (also visible
: on the picture above), or Princess Lilian's
: sapphire and diamond brooch (see picture
: below); I have not understood, when Princess
: Lilian's last will was disclosed, to whom
: these brooches were bequeathed.
:
:
:
: Seeing Princess Sibylla's Aquamarine and
: Diamond Tiara would be great too. Maybe for
: Crown Princess Victoria this year? (it was
: worn by Princess Margaretha for years, and
: by Princess Christina for a representation
: dinner in March 2014)
:
:
:
: And I still have not lost all hope that
: Queen Josefina's double-row-and drops pearl
: necklace could have been bought back by the
: King at Sotheby's recent auction on 11th
: November. Not very probable, but it would be
: a nice surprise, wouldn't it?
