They were purchased by Fred Leighton, not Harry Winston. Joan Rivers wore the necklace & earrings to the 2004 Golden Globes. The earrings and brooch must have been purchased after that. The current whereabouts of the necklace and tiara is unknown.

: The whole parure was at one point own by Harry

: web site where the model was wearing it, the
: tiara as a belt. Joan Rivers wore the
: necklace and earrings for the Oscar a few
: years later. Obvioulsy this lady bought them
: from Harry Winston. But very sad indeed the
: parure is broken up. The original auction
: was on june 20th, 2001. You can see the
: parure on the blog of thid site.
