Aren't there two unmarried Wied-brothers? I'd love to see this beauty on another bride  !
It has been worn by Princess Christina zu Wied as a bride. I have also seen it worn by Princess Sophie Charlotte. Are there pictures of any other wearers?

The two unmarried Wied brothers are Prince Alexander (b1960) who has autism, and Prince Wolff-Heinrich (b 1979).
This is the only other good (sort of) picture I have of the Wied Tiara.

The Hesse Aquamarine tiara is my favorite aquamarine tiara. Love the classic and regal design. Just stunningly beautiful.

Couldn't agree more! What a beautiful piece!
Not sure how I feel about it parading down the runway however...

Do we have an Thur und Taxis tiaras? Surely there must be some still out there with a little cash still left in the family.

The necklace is typical Gloria style,very big and visible! Usually I don´t like such big jewels (and I don´t wear such ostentatious pieces) ,but for her bubbly,joyful personality and character it seems to go well,it reminds me of the ancient Maya/Atztek-sculptures and art. I like the necklace on Gloria,very interesting accessoire:-)

I'm devastated  ! Such a beautiful necklace! Their only tiara! And both with such important historical provenance, descended through generations! The most frequently seen Bavarian tiara will be gone for good.
It really spoils my day.

I always thought the tiara was horrible. However the necklace is simply breathtaking. What a gorgeous color that is.
