I think it is not possible to use that thin and vulnerable frame of the bandeau (the Swedish gift) to attach diamond spikes on it.
The diamonds and the spikes need a good fixing which can only happen with a strong monture. The Swedish gift would collapse because of the weight of the spikes on it. That is my impression.
