I guess this is the prevailing philosophy: we don't have magnificent jewels, but we want royal ladies to get them so we can enjoy seeing them worn!

Just because something has not been worn does not mean it doesn't exist. For all we know Mary may have a number of lovely set gems which have been presented on various occasions. We're just not privy to such information.

After seeing the ruby parure being altered I wonder how many parts it has now.
There is a tiara, collier, earrings, brooch, bangle. In addition I've notice a ring and 3 pins, but are they hairpins or just pins...

I thought they were hairpins only, but anything is possible with the reworking of the parure.

The Crown Princess is looking rather lovely today at the Diplomatic Corp banquet. It looks like she is wearing her wedding tiara with the pearls again. From this distant angle it looks far better than the first outing. Can't wait for a close up.

Another view of the tiara from the banquet. Still not my favorite, but it looks lovely here. The pearl base gives it some better height and glamour and the angle against her hair is nice:

I do love this better than the first time around. Maybe because of the warmer colors worn. I so love pearls at these formal outings!

I do love this elegant yet very dainty tiara. It is neither understated nor overdone and actually and suites Princess Mary perfectly.

I like it too; it doesn't look like it weighs a ton either, so perhaps Mary won't end the evening with a headache.

I thought the only "alteration" was to the tiara itself, having been shortened and the remainder turned into hair pins and (possibly) a ring. Are not the earrings able to support the whole chandelier or parts theroff and therefore, still intact? As to the collier, bracelet and stomacher, I have seen no change in configuration as yet but obviously may have missed something.

It seems as if Mary is wearing a new ring today in DC. Any good photos?
