I dont know why she would give the laurel tiara to Victoria, she will have plenty of tiaras to choose from, Ive always though thatone was going to Carl Philip.

1 Big diamond necklace
2 The six button tiara, she is the only one in the family that looks nice with those hideous buttons on her head
3 Big turqouis necklace and earrings
4 The fringe tiara which Victoria usually wear now

[Josefine]

so i got a hold on lilian biography
there it said thatvictoria and her looked at her diadem that lilian got from bertil and she has said to victoria it will one time be hers

but i have heard it was to be left to the one carl philip will marry
a other members has said it will be left to madeleine
wonder who will get it

I found some older photos of Princess Lilian but they are not very good quality, sorry! They are from Verena's Royal Tiara Page.

1. The first one looks like it was from the 80's she' wearing a large diamond and sapphire necklace, a sapphire and diamond brooch, large diamond drop earrings and the Baden diamond fringe tiara.

2. The second looks like it is from the 70's, she's wearing the diamond Laurel Reif tiara and it looks like either a three strand pearl necklace or a three strand diamond necklace with diamond drop earrings. It is not a very good picture so I can't really tell.

I agree with whomever said Lilian looked best it in the six button tiara, I don't think anyone else can look good in it except her.

I don't know much about her. But from those photos she was a very beautiful woman even in her mature years. She lives in the Royal Palace too, along with her family?

Yes, she was very beautiful when she was younger. I don't have very much info to offer up on her but I do know she was born Lilian May Davies in Wales, United Kingdom and she was also married before Prince Bertil and I think that was the reason they had to wait to so long to get married. You can find a bio of her here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Lilian_of_Sweden

It may not be a very extensive one but it will give you an idea.:)

I agree Lilian looked very good at the Nobel prize awards.

It's her white, somewhat fluffy hair that makes the 6-button tiara look good on her. It makes the buttons melt in better with the hair, which it doesn't with any of the other royal ladies.

I can't understand why they don't take those 6- and 4-button tiaras and turn them into ONE grand necklace - or maybe rearrange the 10 buttons in one frame with a little lower position.

When you see the buttons close up they are very detailed and exquisite, but as satellite receivers on someone's head they just look ridiculous.

lilian has worn several necklaces that we have not seen on silvia did she get them from bertil i guess he got them from, his mother or is it the king who lent it to her and for the time she is alive she is the only one that use them

does anyone have a close up on her long necklace?

[auntie]

Wow, she definitly has a nice collection. Besides the Tiaras which belong to the foundation, are the rest hers privately owned? I certainly hope so, so she can inerit it to whom she likes.
