Greek royal jewels

<< < (46/48) > >>

Brassov:
I cannot understand it. I have been under the impression that the Greek Royals were a bit strapped for cash, and out pops the most beautiful tiara I have ever seen. Probably worth a fortune as well. Perhaps the reason it has not been worn for decades is because it has a bad omen or something, who knows ? Breathtaking anyway. Perhaps someone else has more pics of this tiara ?
Thank You for your reply.

CountessKate:
The Royal Splendor blog has a good picture, the last on the page:

Yes. They have been selling jewels too. Like Queen Frederica's big sapphire (from Missy originally I think). But that big tiara has always been worn by Queens of Greece since Queen Sophie. The only reason it has not been worn since might have been Queen Anne Marie's dislike of it I think...

Brassov:
Or perhaps her dislike of the previous owner ? Who knows. I would love to know the real reason for keeping it hidden for so long.

Eric_Lowe:
The previous owner was her mother-in-law, Queen Frederica. Also the tiara is quite big and Anne Marie has two other tiaras (ruby & emerald) to choose from.
