Better...Alicky and Minny had a lot of "state jewels", but most of Elena's stuff belong to her personally.  ;)

Quite a lot. She got a cartier tiara (she gave that to Olga), fringe tiara (to Wooly, her second daughter), diamond and pearl circular with matching earrings (she gave that to Marina). One or two tiaras we saw only briefly (most likely sold later on), she later gave part of her emerald collection to Olga and other pieces to Wooly and Marina (with the exception of the bow booch from Nicholas II). Her collection expaned with the death of her mother, Miechen in 1919. Marina and Olga also recieved jewels from their grandmother Queen Olga of Greece and husbands plus their family. The question mark is Elizabeth (Wooly).

Elena was a beauty. She looked more like her father than mother.

The young man behind Prince Nicholas's back looked like Prince Paul of Yugoslavia.
