I have no proof but I would think that the major pieces of jewelry owned by the Hessian princely family had been stolen and dismantled during the 1945 burglary.
No tiara nor elements from the emerald or amethyst parures had been among the stolen pieces recovered.
So, I doubt the pearl tiara of Princess Mafalda is still in a vault...

Princess Margaret, daughter of Emperor Frederick III and Victoria, Princess Royal of Great Britain had a very nice pearl tiara.
Her daughter in law Mafalda of Savoy also had a pearl tiara.
Are both still in existence or lost - either through sale or theft?
