    Are you sure it was in the 1990's? I have once seen a clip from the pre-Wedding Ball of her son Erich and Mahtilde of Württemberg where she was wearing a Lovers Knot tiara.

    : The lover's knot tiara worn by the Fürstin von
    : Waldbourg Zeil was bought at auction in
    : Geneva in the 1990s. It is the one owned,
    : long time ago, by the duchess of Cambridge.
    : It was then inherited by her daughter,
    : Augusta duchess of Mecklembourg Strelitz and
    : transmitted to princess Augusta's grand
    : daughter, princess Jutta, wife of the
    : Montenegro crown prince. All this was
    : mentioned in the catalogue of the auction.
    : Actually, the necklace worn by the fürstin
    : of Waldbourg Zeil, although it much more
    : recent, was also in the same auction. It
    : seems it was bought (I guess by the prince
    : of Walbourg Zeil for his wife) in order to
    : make a full set.
