Martin Cid Magazin - Lady Diana’s Wedding Tiara to Star in Sotheby’s Jubilee Tiara Exhibition
The third tiara in the top row is bugging me. I know I've seen it before but can't place it.
Then some of the tiaras are on sale and some of them are just loans. The Forbes article is the only one that has a list of tiaras for sale but it's not very clear.
