It is interesting ! we can also add for the the Duchess of York on least an other tiara :
The fringe tiara and maybe the sapphire and diamond tiara.
She also gave the following tiaras to Princess Mary, the Princess Royal :
- Queen Victoria's sapphire and diamond tiara ;
- A diamond honeysuckle tiara ;
- A diamond fringe tiara ?
- A Gothic Tiara- Enamel,Sapphire,Citrine and Diamond Arts and Crafts Diadem (From Royal Magazin) ;
Therefore, I doubt that QM would have given only 2 tiaras to Princess Marina (I am now sure that QM also gave a collet necklace in 1953)

PS : I have now the impression that QEII was not given many tiaras in 1953 by QM (maybe 5 or 6 known tiaras ?).
We know that QM gave The Duchess of Gloucester three tiaras;
Honeysuckle
Teck Turquoise
Iveagh
We believe that QM gave The Duchess of York three tiaras;
Temple of Love Turquoise
Teck Crescent and Star
Delhi Durbar
Since we know QM gave The Duchess of Kent two tiaras;
Cambridge Sapphire
Bandeau
Isn’t it probable that there should be a third tiara?
