Well at least we had the oppertunity to read these interesting posts.
But somehow I don't think well have more of these revealing stories.

The troonopvolgers website however has some information about the multicoloured earrings from Princess Maxima. They are from H.Stern.

It seems they cost almost $20.000, the Stern site doesn't mention prices however thus it seems the Troonopvolgers website contacted Stern

The price for the earrings is listed in the bottom of the picture. DVF Harmony is available for sale at other stores like neimanmarcus.com and bergdorfgoodman.com and they have the price listed on some of the collection.

I do remember H.Stern having the price listed on their site awhile back on Princess Maxima's earrings the first time she wore them. I think this is when the picture you posted was copied. But with prices of gold/platinum going up, I'm sure the earrings are higher than what's listed in the photo.

Yes, I really like those earrings. There are quite versatile as well, you can wear them with any color of the stones and either wear them long or short.
She's got one heck of collection of jewelry...

As these earrings are new and worn by Princess Máxima, we may assume it belongs to her private jewelry cassettes at Villa Eikenhorst. Most likely these belong to her personal jewelry collection and will be given to or inherited by her daughters instead of to be given in the ownership of the Foundation Crown Properties House of Orange-Nassau. I have the idea only the jewels which are 'subservient for maintaining the dignity of the kingship by the King and/or the King's House' are placed in the Foundation. Then we are talking about the grandest jewels, or parures, or historical heirloom jewels.

The jeweller is Steltman in The Hague. It was said at the time the prince 'designed' the ring. However the design was made by Brom.
Oh and Yes. It is a very rare orange diamond.

I'm sure that sweet little Catharina-Amalia, the future Princess of Orange/Queen of the Netherlands will enjoy playing dress-up with these orange jewels too.

Just a quick FYI comment. In US dollars you don't put a period unless it is to denote cents. Meaning in one of the above posts someone stated the dollar amount as 20.000. What they really should have said was 20,000. To use the period with the comma it could be 20,000.00. The only reason I say that is if you put a peroid it might be confused with a different amount of currency. I know some other currencys use . instead of , so it can be confusing.

I wonder do the tiaras are real or she use fake ones? I was thinking there are very expensive jewellery I presume she is going with a lot of security around, bodyguards,etc.... everytime she is using all this???
I read in the frist threat about some people do not like some of the tiaras, I must say I think regardles if there are nice or not, I would not mind to have on of this ones on my head even the ones that some members wrote it was owfaul!

The tiaras used by the royals are real. (at least any that I know of) That is some of the reason they are so special. Even the tiara Maxima wears that looks so cheesy (the diamond festoon) is real.

The royals do wear paste sometimes, necklaces, bracelets, and etc, but as far as I know, never tiaras!

Thank you LadyK.,
sorry that i ask and apologize for my ifnorance, but what do you mean by "paste"?
Sometimes I thought that may be it was a good imitation becasue I imagine they are very valuable and they travel with them to other countries etc.... they must travel with a lot of bodyguards I can imagine....
I worked with Holiday on Ice and Ice Capades we had a lot of costume jewellery and I tell you it looks so real that it is incredible!

I love that watch from post #55. One of my favorite things about royal princesses is the clothes and jewelry I get to see them wear.
