Well spotted, Baxter and Mauriz! Thank you for your sharp eyes!
The diamond frame of the earrings worn by Joan Rivers have more brilliants than the earrings auctioned off in 2012 by Christie's along with the brooch.
Regarding the necklace, we can observe that two peridots (+ two peridot pendants) were removed from the necklace chain at some time:
- on the pictures below, the necklace is made of ten peridots + seven pendants:
 
- whereas here, the necklace (probably in the version worn by Joan Rivers) is made of only eight elements + five pendants:
If I well remember, the tiara has been bought by a Japanese art collection, "Albion Art Collection", and lent occasionally for jewellery exhibitions. But I am a bit lost in their website, I can not find the tiara again...

: Thank you, Baxter. That makes sense, since
: the brooch and the original earrings were

: The diamond frames around the peridot drops
: in the neclace contain smaller/more stones
: which matches Joan River's earrings.

: BTW, is anything known of the whereabouts of
: the tiara?

: Edit: The second picture in Arthur's first
: post shows that the necklace was shortened
