It's time for a new Tiara for Mette-Marit!

I think Queen Sonja should give her this stunning tiara:

Those are beautiful mims!!! I love it! She looks so gooooood in them, I hope we see her with another tiara soon!

The aquamarine tiara suits her coloring to perfection. I have always thought it a rather ugly contraption but on her it really is quite lovely. Maybe the Norweigan parliment should vote the funds to get her an aquamarine parure. That could not be all that expensive. Cheers.

I tried with MM some more photoshops, and I think Gold and darker coloured jewels would suit to her more than diamonds.

I prefer this one!

Very good work, mims!
I think Mette Marit should try out a bigger tiara!
Maybe Sonja will give herself a kick and give MM a new tiara.

Well, Mims, dear heart you have gone and done it!!!!! I was delighted and amazed that you should take the comb from the parure of the Princess Catherine (what on earth is her last name, I can never remember it) now owned by the Duke of Westminster and turn it into a tiara. I have always thought that it would make a marvelous design. One should take both the tiara and the comb and use them as the basis for two sapphire(ie blue sapphire) jewels. I would love to see a picture of the current Duchess wearing the actual tiara. Even though I do not care for spinels, which I have always thought an insipid and watered down version of rubies. Could we persuade the Noble Warren to rummage around in his barn of goodies, perhpas??? Cheers. Thomas Parkman

Diana with the Queen's Grand Duchess Vladimir Tiara; it is very similar to the diana's tiara that was a queen wedding's gift.

Corazon! The Queen's tiara looks great on Diana, it actually looks like she's wearing it. Great job!

Mims you did a wonderful job with Mette-Marit too, I love the last ones you did, I normally like big tiaras but the tiara that looks like Mathilde of Belguim's tiara does look good on her I don't remember what it's called though. Good job everybody! I'd love to see more

HRH Mims · #**151** 08-16-2006, 03:41 AM

Yeah! Great work Corazon!!!

I made some more photoshops of Mette-Marit

That's great mims, I like the first tiara with the pink stones on MM and I like the last crown type on MM too! She will make a beautiful Queen someday

Great job everyone! I have been enjoying this thread so much! I have tried to contribute, but my attempts are scary looking

. Guess I'll just have to enjoy the magnificant fruits of your labors. Thanks again!

Maxie · #**157** 08-18-2006, 01:58 AM

Mims, I'm really loving the Westminster Kokoshnik tiara on Mathilde! Thanks for your efforts!

This really is a splendid thread!

Well good people, somebody should dredge up a picture of Diana wearing the Cambridge Lovers Knot Tiara, which she had the use of during her life. There is a famous picture of her and Charles at the White House in which she is wearing it. Quite a lovely thing too. It has been returned to the Queen and will probably next appear adorning the no doubt adored and worshipped head of the bride of Prince William. It is a marvelous contraption as is the Princess Vladimir with either the pearls or the Cambridge emeralds. I personally prefer the emeralds but then who am I to quibble. Diana would have looked wonderful wearing the Princess Vladimir but that was most definately reserved for the Queen, who looks fabulous in the thing. She has worn it so much that it almost seems to have grown up out of her head and is a natural part of her body. I remember when the Queen went to China and the little Chinese children wanted to know why wasn't she wearing her tiara.

I certainly find the picture of Mathilde wearing the Portland diamond tiara stiking. I would love to see an up to date picture of somebody wearing that. It is one of my favorite pieces. Cheers.
