Re: Princess Alexandra's Turquoise Necklace
i think you are right, I just find it odd that if you had a pearl tiara you would alter it to turquoise unless you already had major pieces of matching jewellery. Diamond would be a good change but turquoise seems unusual. If she had spare money she might but otherwise it seems a bit extravagant. On the other hand it would explain why her jubilee necklace was altered to take turquoise’s. If you had a piece like that a matching tiara would be useful as you wouldn’t wear it at informal events.
