Thank you for these very interesting photo Hans.
I apologise for not having replied earlier. I have been trying for the last couple of days to envisage Queen Maud's necklace as a tiara without the pear pearls, and reconcile that with the photos you posted.
Unfortunately, I have not been able to reach any conclusion. In part that is because the photos of the Countess do not give a clear view of her tiara and, in part, because my eye is not sufficiently sharp to spot differences.
Thank you for the photos. They gave me a lot to think about. I hope that others will know more.
My apologies for my late reply.
