A nice bandeau from the family of Hatzfeld-Trachenberg, very wearable, will be auctioned.

A substantial piece of jewellery is a diamond corsage brooch made by Köchert, Vienna. It seems not completely clear on which way, but it was part of Princess Viktoria Luise of Prussia´s collection.(Ursula has some information about it https://www.royal-magazin.de/german/hannover/hannover-prussia-cumberland-brooch-devante-de-corsage-koechert-diamond-victoria-luise-wedding.htm )

It’s a typical example of Köchert´s work at the beginning of 20th century, definitely to impress. Luckily it comes in three pieces, so its variable. Sotheby´s shows a picture from backside (I love that!).
What do you think: May a part of it be worn as a head ornament?
