Thank you Arthur, unfortunately I'm unable to assist you with further information. The necklace is striking, but it's unfortunate that the design only covers half the necklace and the remaining is the plain chain, it takes away from the design. The necklace could very well be one that's converted to a tiara. I noticed the earrings appear to match the necklace. --Previous Message-- : Hello, : : Micaela, Countess of Paris, the second wife : of the current Count of Paris, Head of the : French Royal House (Orleanist claim), has : been seen several times wearing a diamond : necklace forming loop motifs, with a pearl : drop pendant (and a pair of earrings : possibly matching with the pendant). : : Does anyone know the origin of this jewel? I : do not think it is an Orleans heirloom, as I : have only seen Micaela wearing it. : : The Countess of Paris wore this necklace for : the Monegasque wedding in July 2011: : : : (Credit: Marc Piasecki/Getty Images Europe, : via Zimbio.com). : : On the picture above, we can see that this : jewel is not a "full" necklace, : encircling all around the neck, but that it : is only worn at the front, and held at the : back with a thin chain connected to both : extremities of the jewels. Therefore, I : wonder if this necklace could be worn as a : tiara too? : : We can have a slightly better (or at least : closer) view on the following picture, taken : in September 2000 in Paris: : : : : http://www.gettyimages.ae/detail/news-photo/le-bal-de-paris-on-september-12th-2000-in-paris-france-news-photo/109119147 : : Thanks in advance for your input! : : Arthur : : :
