    The Queen wore her daughter's tiara at a reception at the Waldorf Astoria hotel in New York during a visit to the USA in 1995. According to Scanpix, where I found the photo, the date was 11th October 1995.

    : While googling for a diferent jewel I found
    : this pic, totally unknown to me, of Queen

    : tiara was a gift from the late king Olav to
    : his grandaughter Pss Martha-Louise.
    : Can someone tell me please when was it worn
    : by the Queen and at what ocasion? Are there
    : any other pics from this ocasion?
    : I found this rather strange as she has
    : several tiaras, why borrow such a small one
    : from her daughter. Were the jewels under
    : maintenance (cleaning) perhaps?

    : I believe the pic was posted at the Royal
    : Forums, but I do not know who posted it so
    : cannot give it credits. If anyone knows
    : please state so.
