Several of the photos are very interesting !
For example, it's the first time I see a face view of the Astor tiara with the Sancy diamond.
For the 4th photo, I think the couple is Baroness Guy de Rothschild with his wife, Marie-Helene.
As for the 5th photo, I think it's a rare one showing some of the Russian Crown Jewels. The huge collet necklace is the one worn by Empress Maria Feodorovna.
I also think the jewel on the bottom left (only showed partially) is the bracelet above, also from the Russian Imperial Collection.
Many thanks !

I have been going through my old pictures that I have saved over the years and I have found some ones I would like to share. This is my first time ever uploading pictures directly so please be patient with me if this doesn't work!
I have been collecting these for a decade or so, so don't know the sources of all of them or who they relate to, I just like them because they are beautiful items of jewellery.
This has something to do with Mrs Greville, I can't remember where I first saw it.
This looks similar
This is the Astor tiara with the Sancy diamond
I don't know who this lady is but the tiara is intriguing.
