No, Countess Ruth's major pieces of jewelry went to her children - and as you all know her garnet tiara went on auction.
The difference between the Ferner family and Countess Ruth and Count Flemming is that the Ferner family are reportedly billionaires and Countess Ruth and Count Flemming were not wealthy at all.
So for the Ferner children their mother's tiara does not have to be auctioned - and the tiara is not an asset they rely on to be able to get bread and butter - which is the case of the Rosenborg family. Their family jewels are something they can sell off to survive.
That is why the Ferner children could "give" away their mother's tiara to the main line.
