upcoming Magnificent Jewels and Noble Jewels auction in November 2019, although I don't believe there is anything relating to the Thurn & Taxis family for sale.

Its an interesting article and Princess Elisabeth also gave an insight into her mother's jewellery collection, which is still considerable despite the now legendary auction in the 1990s:
"And even today, Princess Gloria is protective of her impressive collection of heritage jewels: “My mother does not lend me much. It’s a big responsibility to wear them out. Whenever I have gone to parties with any bigger piece, I seem to remember fretting about not losing the pieces during the night.”
