Countess Howe. Posted by 992234177 on September 16, 2021, 10:32 pm I found this, I think it might be Lady Georgiana Spencer-Churchill, Countess Howe but I’m not sure, I’m fairly sure it’s a Howe by the tiara and the fact she’s wearing coronation robe. https://www.the-saleroom.com/en-gb/auction-catalogues/woolley-and-wallis/catalogue-id-srwo10291/lot-609273bd-3025-4f0a-90ee-ad9d00e7eb7e?utm_source=auction-alert&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=auction-alert&utm_content=lot-view-link

Re: Countess Howe. Posted by Beth on September 17, 2021, 7:03 am, in reply to "Countess Howe." Great find 992234177 ! It is Georgiana, Countess Howe dressed for the coronation in 1902. The photo below was clearly identified as her. I am intrigued by the circles necklace; it is so similar to the Teck circles necklace/tiara. I wonder how many of these necklaces were made? FD Gallery have one on their website, which doesn't appear to be the Howe necklace and is slightly different from the one worn by Princess Margaret. See FD Gallery https://www.instagram.com/p/CS9nWONHUPG/ Interestingly, the one at FD Gallery comes with a tiara frame etc. I wonder if the necklace as owned by Mary, Duchess of Teck was also originally able to be worn as a tiara? I had always assumed that Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother had a frame especially made -- but.
