Lost tiara of Princess Michael Posted by Janet on March 3, 2023, 10:27 pm I came across this on Ebay, an auction catalogue from 1988 showing Princess Michael sold a tiara at Christies. It was not a particularly beautiful or valuable piece (based on the auction estimate) but it was very clearly historical with no doubt an interesting provenance - I assume it came from her family given she descends from nobles in the Austro-Hungarian empire. It wouldnt have suited many royal women in the late 20th century but if anyone could have pulled it off, I suspect Princess Michael could have. Does anyone recall if she was ever photographed wearing it? https://picclick.com/Christies-MAGNIFICENT-JEWELS-Jewelry-Auction-Catalog-10-19-1988-165963821324.html

Re: Lost tiara of Princess Michael Posted by Beth on March 6, 2023, 4:11 pm, in reply to "Re: Lost tiara of Princess Michael" I remember seeing a documentary in which Princess Michael stated that she owned 3 tiaras. No one could fathom what the 3rd might be. This find supplies the answer.
