it also suggests that the extension could be worn as a “base” at the front of the tiara as seen on Ursula’s page.
Many thanks Mauriz!!
Once again your sharp eye and logical thinking has solved a mystery for us all. I laughed at myself for not realising that the "bracelet" was an extension, as it seems so obvious now that I have read your explanation.
Knightship raised an interesting point about the knowledge the reporters had.
The UK media had two distinct descriptions of the tiara: one was that the tiara was accompanied by a bracelet in the same case as the tiara; the other was that the tiara could convert to a necklace. The latter reports did not mention a bracelet at all.
Press item stating a bracelet accompanied the tiara
Press item saying the tiara converted to a necklace
The reports which did not mention a bracelet didn't show the extension piece in their sketches.
I think that the differences in the reports will have occurred as the various major news outlets' reporters interpreted what they saw.
