    Thank you so much for sharing this photo and thus providing proof that there were indeed two tiaras of this type in the family. Is it possible to say which occasion this is from? Could it be the wedding mentioned in the previous thread?

    : Some weeks ago there was a discussion here
    : about the ears-of-wheat tiara(s) owned by
    : Princess Helena of Denmark and her daughter
    : Princess Feodora. Were they two separate
    : tiaras - or a big and small version of the
    : same tiara? I have found a photo that gives
    : the answer:
    :
    :
    :
    : In front we see Princess Feodora with the
    : smaller tiara (4 ears of wheat) - and in the
    : background her sister-in-law Dorrit of
    : Rosenborg with the bigger tiara (6 ears of
    : wheat).
    : While this proves that there were indeed two
    : tiaras, it raises also the questions of the
    : smaller tiara's provenance and present
    : whereabouts.
