Very nice Stefan, as did Beth' although I could understand anything I was most impressed with the jeweled orbs and crosses and the look a like Faberge egg with the Virgin Mary as depicted. And the necklace was also outstanding. Can someone please put this documentary in English, thank you.

Dave.
Recently there was a Documenation about the Jewels of the Wittelsbach on bavarian TV. It was however most about gistoric Jewels and short about the Crown Jewels and not much about the Jewels owned by the Family.
Duke Max in Bavaria who participated however mentioned that his wife sometimes loans a tiara fromt he Wittelsbacher Ausgleichsfonds. He showed a pic with it and it is the eglantine tiara which the Duchess has worn for the Wedding Balls of her daughters. He also mentions that his daughter Sophie wore for her Wedding a tiara owned by his wife but the pic he shows with it is not from the Wedding Day but from the Wedding Ball.
The Documenatary can be see here in german:
