Lot 238 is an early tiara https://www.christies.com/lotfinder/jewelry/a-rare-late-18th-early-19th-6211636-details.aspx?from=salesummery&intobjectid=6211636&sid=52df6bc2-b996-4be5-b0e4-d69d538a67a7

Vincent Meylan featured it in a recent Instagram post See https://www.instagram.com/p/ByPadfCImCX/

I have not been able to see the posters' comments or those of others on Instagram for a couple of weeks, no matter which browser I use, so I have no idea what Vincent has said about this item. But I know it will be something interesting.

Vincent Meylan also featured the Harcourt diamond tiara which is in the same sale. See the third photo here https://www.instagram.com/p/ByN1LgwIk5v/
