The most public opportunity for Princess Margaretha to wear the aquamarine tiara would have been The King's 60th birthday gala - but she wore the amethyst tiara instead, which Queen Silvia had made convertible in 1979.Is it possible that she still owns the piece but just had no occasion to wear it during the past 12 years? (oh dear, I sound like I am very desperately clinging to the idea that the tiara was NOT sold.)
The aquamarine tiara has indeed not been seen for twelve years, its accompanying very large brooch even longer, and I'm actually 'clinging' to the idea that the pieces were not sold to anyone but The King as well.
To let a decent time period pass in order not to draw attention to the severe financial troubles of Princess Margaretha's late husband could still explain why the tiara might have stayed (hopefully) in the Bernadotte vaults.
