Re: Edinburgh ruby parure
What happened to that tiara is such a disaster ! It was sold before antique jewelry became fashionable and exhibited in museums. First the rubies were removed to be replaced by the much less beautiful cabochons rubies. And then it was broken up. Sad ! The rubies on the corsage ornament were used to make earrings, a smaller brooch, a ring and a bracelet which were quite nice actually. Wonder if they still exist.
