    It was this article i meant and i have apparently read wrong and thought at first that this tiara would be auctioned in the upcoming auction like the sapphire tiara in the first pic.
    UI sounded likely to me as the original Cambridge Lovers Knot tiara was in 1981 bought by the late Fürst Georg of Waldburg-Zeil who died last year.
