It is described that she was wearing a diamond neckalce : maybe her long diamond necklace worn in Paris (never seen a photo of the sautoir) or maybe the collet worn with the Cartier halo tiara in 1936.

The earliest image I seem to have of Queen Mary wearing what I call her wing tiara is from July 1931.
The image is extremely blurry, and so I have relied on the description of HM's jewels to identify the tiara in question.

As far as I know it is the only tiara Queen Mary used for the Ladies of India emerald brooch.
Does anyone have an earlier photos or evidence that Queen Mary had the tiara earlier? Say in the 1920s?
