Queen Alexandra's jewels for the State Banquet are the ones which intrigue me the most.
Her jewels were described simply as a diamond tiara and ropes of pearls.
Yet, the sketch published by the
Sphere shows a tiara which might match the amethyst tiara. How I wish we could find some more evidence!
There is evidence that Queen Alexandra was wearing the amethyst tiara and necklace for Court events from 1904 onwards, so it is possible. But would it be likely?
