I recently saw this description of Queen Mary's jewels worn at the Opera in 1931.
Source:
Times
27 June 1931
I wondered if the description matched this tiara, although I realise that the Durbar brooch is not a cabochon stone.
Then I noticed this image

This has made me wonder if Queen Mary had a set of wings mounted on a tiara base which she then adorned with various other jewels.
