On the neighbour board (Glittering Royal Events) Marianne has kindly post some links dedicated to the death of the much loved Pss Lillian. One of the links is to Sophia's blog that has a wonderful tribute of her life. It says that on Pss Lillians memoirs (2000) she told CP Viktoria that she would leave her "her diadem" that was a gift from Prince Bertil and belonged to his mother. I assume she is talking about the laurel leaves tiara/neecklace that Pss Lillian often wore. As far as I know she wore it only as a tiara, but I've seen an old picture of CP Margaretha where she is wearing it as a necklace.
I am not sure if it would be considered as "too soon" but I would find a lovely tribute to Pss Lillian if CP Viktoria would wear this laurel diamond tiara to her sister's wedding next June.
