    It's one of the most beautiful tiaras I've ever seen! I agree with Beth that the tiara is very reminiscent of Queen Mary's diamond bandeau worn by the Duchess of Sussex, but I much prefer the 3 principal pear-shaped diamonds to the rather clumsy diamond brooch and clusters in Queen Mary's bandeau. What an elegant and well-proportioned piece this is: restrained, yet substantial, the well thought out details accentuating, but not disturbing the clean lines of the design - perfect!
