For those who have not seen it, Vincent Meylan has posted an intriguing theory on the history of the Cambridge Lovers Knot tiara.

Most of what Vincent Meylan says is documented.
The mystery is what happened to the tiara in between when it was sold by Princess Jutta of Montenegro and when it reappeared at auction at Christie's, Geneva.
Vincent Meylan argues that it was owned by the late Rajmata of Patiala, Mehtab Kaur.
Congratulations Vincent! I think you have solved the mystery.
This photo is dated 1938 by some. It was the year of the Rajmata's wedding.
