Yes, I think you are both correct. I must admit that maybe I got a bit carried away and I didn't think of the necklace. It seems like it has indeed been used various times as a tiara. Thank you also for providing links to the previous discussions, which had passed me by. And for following up with more photos of the necklace - and other necklaces in the Gloucester collection. It is indeed a vast one with many lovely and versatile pieces. --Previous Message-- : I believe that Arthur is correct and that the : tiara worn by Princess Alice, Duchess of : Gloucester in both of the photos posted by : Kongetro is a necklace mounted as a tiara. : : : In this photo the present Duchess is wearing : the jewel as a necklace. : : : Links to some previous discussions : See Maridge's photos : http://members2.boardhost.com/royal-jewels/msg/1441453592.html : and : http://members2.boardhost.com/royal-jewels/msg/1442396896.html : : I don't think that the necklace mounted as a : tiara is the tiara worn by the Countess of : Ulster for her marriage. : : : : : :
