That the diamond comes from the Belgian Royal Family is of course a possibility also that should be considered.
Secondly: sorry for "hijacking" your post like this, but as you mentioned Princess Louise I thought I would post a link to a photo which I just discovered today. Maybe it is already known by most, but it was new to me. It is a photo of some of the jewels that Princess Louise inherited from Queen Marie Henriette and which she had to sell
http://runeberg.org/hvar8dag/9/0116.html
The text says that the tiara was a gift to the Queen from the citizens of Brussels.
King Leopold II and Queen marie Henriette had 4 Children. Their only Son who should have been King Leopold III died when he was 1O years old.
SO the third King was Count Philippe of Flandres Son Albert I (nephew of Leopold II). His descendence are our Kings nowadays.
Back to King Leopold II and his 3 daughters. To make it short Princess Louise had to sold her jewels,Princesss Stephanie had her jewels stolen.
Back to Princess Clementine. She was in love with Prince Victor Napoléon , Head of the Imperial House. King Leopold II refused this Wedding. She had to wait until her Father passed away (1909) and married the 4/11/2010 Prince Victor , she was 38 years old. They had 2 Children Marie Clothilde and Louis Napoleon.
She is the only one daughter of Leopold II who kept her jewels.
Back to prince Louis Napoleon a very handsome man who married Alix de Foresta (still alive). They attended a lot of glittering events and the Princess was seen with a small tiara and a huge necklace.( I suppose from Princess Clementine)
Back to their Children , Charles their eldest Son married princess Beatrice de Bourbon Siciles (sister of the Duke of Castro) in 1978 civily. They divorced in 1989. They had 2 Children Caroline and Jean Christophe.
When Prince Louis Napoléon died by testament he desherited prince Charles and Prince Jean Christophe was the Head of the Imperial House.
Back to Jean Chistophe engaged to Countess Olympia Arco Z. and the soi disant 40 carats Eugenie Ring.
To me Countess Olympia engagement Ring of ? carats belonged to Princess Clementine
and/or Princess Alix .
