    I would also love to see the Scarab necklace again an i agree that it would make a great combination with the rjuby tiara. But i think it would also loom great with the Connaught tiara.
    And i certainly hope that we will see the Cameo tiara again in use now that all 3 of the royal children are married. The last time it was worn before the Wedding in 2010 waqs at a STate Visit to Austria in 2007 or 2008.

    : I agree it would be lovely to see again the
    : Connaught Scarab necklace, which had been so
    : frequently worn by Princess Lilian. As far
    : as I remember, Princess Lilian, in her will,
    : had specifically bequested this necklace to
    : Queen Silvia. It would make a very nice
    : match, I think, with the Connaught Ruby
    : tiara. Maybe both jewels are too
    : "small" for the Nobel gala on 10th
    : December, but they could be a good choice
    : for the Queen for the "day after"
    : dinner at the Royal Palace on 11th December.
    :
    : For the Queen, Queen Sofia's Nine-Prong
    : tiara or the Leuchtenberg sapphires are the
    : most plausible options, but I would be glad
    : to see the Queen pick up something less
    : expected: the Cameo Parure, or the Amethyst
    : set. Or, as I suggested last year, the Baden
    : Fringe tiara, but worn as a necklace (Queen
    : Victoria wore it that way): it would match
    : perfectly, I think, with the Nine-Prong
    : tiara. Anyway, whatever jewels Queen Silvia
    : chooses to wear, I am sure she will be
    : stunning!

    : For Crown Princess Victoria, I would enjoy
    : to see Princess Lilian's Laurel tiara again,
    : it is so lovely and suits Victoria very
    : well. Or the Connaught diamond tiara. Maybe
    : with the (too-rarely seen) sapphire, pearl
    : and diamond necklace presented by King
    : Gustaf V to Queen Victoria as wedding gift.
    : Of course, the best surprise would be to see
    : Crown Princess Victoria wear Princess
    : Sibylla's Aquamarine Kokoshnik (supposed to
    : belong to Princess Margaretha, but which was
    : recently seen at least twice on Princess
    : Christina)!
    :
    : For Princess Sofia, I hesitate between her
    : wedding tiara, and another tiara from the
    : Royal collection. The Four-Button tiara
    : would look great on her black hair. If she
    : opts for her wedding tiara, one of Queen
    : Silvia's modern emerald set could be a
    : possible stylistic match with this tiara.
