And many thanks to Mauriz for helping us to understand the intricacies of posting images, and for posting the image and the link to Sotheby's.
The tiara reminds me of Queen Mary's diamond bandeau, so recently worn by the Duchess of Sussex.
It would be interesting to know who made this jewel. I am hoping that we may be able to find some photos of Vida Clive, later the wife of Brigadier Derek Schreiber, wearing the jewel. When she remarried in Canberra in 1946, she was Lady-in-waiting to Princess Alice, Duchess of Gloucester.
The Canberra wedding.
