Tiffany display at the 1939 World fair.. Posted by Janet on April 20, 2020, 4:59 am Oh what I would give for a high quality colour version of this picture. The centrepiece is the Tiffany diamond, which was famously worn by Audrey Hepburn and later Lady Gaga. The tiara at the centre features the Hooker emerald, which was owned by the third but last Sultan of the Ottoman empire

Re: Tiffany display at the 1939 World fair.. Posted by Dave on April 20, 2020, 2:30 pm, in reply to "Tiffany display at the 1939 World fair.." An impressive display, thanks Janet. Could the great coloured stone just below the tiara and I believe at the centre of the diamond necklace, could that be the much debated sapphire formally in the collection of Queen Frederica of Greece?

Like you I would love a full colour photo. Just to give some perspective of the size of the Tiffany diamond's almost 128 Carats here it is as worn by Lady Gaga. The 75 Carat Hooker emerald is now on display at the Smithsonian. https://www.si.edu/newsdesk/photos/hooker-emerald-brooch
