The lady for whom the tiara was created was Florence Sheridan, wife of the 2nd Baron Poltimore. She was a noted beauty and, even at the time of the 1902 coronation, the press continued to comment on her beauty. Below is the only clear photo I have found of her - published at the time of her death in 1909. I would love to see her in full evening wear with the tiara.
Below is one of the many comments on her beauty - at the time of her husband's death in 1908.
