are set with amethysts? Often amethysts in jewels of this era are quite large. When you look at the stones in the tiara and the stone in the shortest necklace - then these stones suggest they could be other gems. Sapphires or emeralds? The size of the stones in the necklace that the pendant is suspended from could easily be sapphires/emeralds as well...
