Previous Message TM the King and Queen of the Netherlands will host a state banquet for the incoming State Visit from Finland tonight. According to the Royal House website the royal couple and the Princess of Orange will attend. So two tiaras for tonight. It would be nice if we saw the Princess of Orange for the first time in the aquamarine tiara. Her mother wore aquamarine earrings for the receiving ceremony on Dam square. For Maxima im actually hoping she'll finally wear the ears of wheat as a tiara or the bandeau a la Grecque. She more likely is going to wear the sapphire tiara again or possibly the Stuart in the smaller setting she wore in Luxembourg.

And unfortunately in a dress that is too long (or the heels she is wearing with it too low) and the sleeves are too big. Not a flattering outfit on her. She has worn the ornate pearl tiara a number of times with the pearls on the top prongs it would be nice if she started wearing it with all the pearls on top. I do like the 5 row pearl necklace a lot but im looking forward to some more imaginative use of the jewels by Amalia and her sisters. Maxima seems to have settled in her ways when it comes to the grand jewels of the House.

And another tiara for Amalia, she is going through the collection with quite some speed. It's another one that suits her, though im not a fan of the central part of Queen Emma's wedding gift stomacher as an attachment to the necklace. The necklace on it's own would have looked better in my view. The dress is another nice addition for the Princess of Orange but it's not as impressive as the green one she wore in Luxembourg. This one is younger, more girly. Previous Message Previous Message TM the King and Queen of the Netherlands will host a state banquet for the incoming State Visit from Finland tonight.

Fully agree. The pendant taken from Emma's Diamond Stomacher is too much. Didn't like it on Maxima either. Its just too much and out of place. Would have been much better as brooch because the central diamond actually has a yellowish (Cape) colour. The bandeau suits Amalia perfectly as I suspected.

I am still waiting for the lesser known setting of the Ornate Pearl Tiara: with the upright pearls BETWEEN the scrolls. Beatrix wore it like that many moons ago. I think it will look splendid! It will give the tiara more body. Courtesy Royal Watcher Previous Message And unfortunately in a dress that is too long (or the heels she is wearing with it too low) and the sleeves are too big.

Absolutely agree with you. Altough stunning this present version is dificult to balance and place at a proper angle in the head, it looks a bit lowered back and tilted. It always makes me think of a Gothic cathedral But it is one of my favourite royal pearl tiaras, so beautiful.
