In a letter to her brother Tsar Nicholas I Anna Pavlovna describes her outfit for the investiture ceremony and speaks of wearing her tiara with pavlovnik style pearls. Sophie of Wurtemberg had several tiara's not one resembles the one in this picture. Princess Louise must have had more tiara's but the only one properly depicted is the Orange-Nassau pearl tiara now with her descendant Queen Margrethe II of Denmark.
