Very interesting. I wonder which side of the family is selling? The line of the Dukes of Calabria or the line of the Dukes of Castro? I suspect the first, but that is just a guess, as it could be anyone (or a descendant) who is/was a member of the family at any time.

Thanks Erik! It doesn't look too bad for a modern tiara. I would love to see it in necklace form.
