One question - are you certain there are two different tiaras in the two first pictures of a young Queen Ratna? Could they not be the same tiara, only the black and white picture makes it look different? I am speaking of the two pictures where you have identified she is wearing the same necklace only once with emeralds. Previous Message
I've been researching Nepalese tiaras recently and today is Queen Ratna's 92nd birthday so I thought we could look at her tiaras. So far I've found six different tiaras worn by her but I haven't been able to find any information about any of them except that the diamond palmette tiara is now on display at the Narayanhiti Palace Museum. As Saad from The Royal Watcher already posted about here that probably means that it is owned by the state.
I only have one picture of the first two tiaras being worn but the interesting thing here is that Queen Ratna is wearing the same necklace with and without emerald drops.
