Back in February last year Alyend posted a very interesting image of Grand Duchess Louise of Baden together with her daughter Victoria (Queen of Sweden). The issue was whether the two ladies were wearing two tiaras - each(!) or not. Unfortunately there were not a lot of responses to the message. Still the image got stuck in my mind. And today I stubled across another image from the same sitting. Now, the link should bring you to a photo that is only 10% of it's size. Fortunately there is an option where it is possible to zoom to 100% and amazingly close! In fact to me it looks like the Grand Duchess is wearing two different tiaras: one being the Baden Palmette tiara now in the possession of Queen Margrethe. The other one looks like a wreath type of tiara. As for Victoria it is a bit more difficult to identify what she's wearing (apart from the Baden Fringe tiara), but it also looks like leaves of some sort. Or could these be wreaths made up of actual real plants??
