I love them very much, and I think they are too much precious. Do they still use them? I not know too much about the jewels.Some photos of queen Josefina with her jewellery in different ages...

It is the pink tormaline Paure of Queen Sopfia. The one where there are Rumorus that the swedish RF has bought it back.
Yes, she has two tiaras, the pearl tiara and the tiara with diamond arches. Some decades ago she also wore the ruby tiara which her husband inherited. This tiara was sold back to the main line and is worn by the Queen.How many tiaras does Countess Marianne own? I have not been through the entire thread but from recently posted photos it looks like two?
I suppose she didn't have access to the RF jewellery pool after the resumed title brawl of her late husband?

I love the pictures of the old Swedish Court dress,some wonderful images of queen Joséphine above!
View image: marianna bernadotteDo you have pictures of the tiara with diamond arches?
Afaik these two remaining tiaras originate from her first husband's family (also see Ingrid Cecilia's post above.) So there is no "back" to the Bernadotte family, because they don't come from there.Perhaps these two may also find their way back to the Bernadotte royal jewel chest some day!

Since it is currently in use it is not really a Jewel of the Past. Since iseems it is the princesses private property I expect it will be inherited by her children and possibly sold for taxes or simply because they have no use for a tiara.
I have read that the king already bought the tiara from his sister a while ago, but princess Margaretha can keep using it during the rest of her life.
some good posts at Royal Jewels of the World Message Board but with no real conclusionHere is à text from 1910 it talks about what the Queen Victoria wore, the crown princess Margareta and princesses...
Yes, she wore it to the coronatian of George VI in 1937. She only became queen in 1950. I think that was an exception, because at such a big event every royal house wanted to show off their very best bling.when Louise of sweden wore the braganza tiara did she do so as crown princess?
