I find it interesting that CP Margaretha had to borrow a complete parure to wear to the coronation of her uncle. She received quite a bit of jewelry as wedding presents, but IIRC no actual parures. Perhaps because it was assumed that she would be able to wear those already in the family some day, and in the meantime she had plenty of jewels for most occasions!
