I've recently updated my posts on some Scandinavian tiaras and I would love some feedback. I haven't cover all of Countess Ruth's tiaras but here are a couple.
Rosenborg Kokoshnik
Turquoise Star Tiara
Thanks in advance!

If I had the money to buy a tiara it certainly wouldn't be this one but I do think that it will sell this time because of the lower price and a higher profile auction house. For me it just has too many different design elements going on with the kokoshnik, bows, and the garlands plus the four different stones; diamonds, garnets, pink pearls, and white pearls.

The Rosenborg Kokoshnik was sold yesterday for $276,204 USD (201,129 EUR) to an unknown buyer.

I really, really wish that one of the connected Royal houses bought back the tiara, so that we could see it in the future. But it was probably sold to someone else...

Yes it must have been someone else. If some relative had wanted to buy the tiara, they would have done in a private Transaction.

That has caused a lot of speculation amoung the followers of the Danish royal jewels. But Princess Elisabeth herself has not commented about it.
Of course many think that it should go to main line of the RF. But to be honest, her closest relatives are her three nieces. One of them, Countess Josephine, usually wears the diamond bandeau which Queen Alexandrine received as a 25th wedding anniversary gift from her husband. Alexandrine gave it to Elisabeth as a confirmation gift. Not to forget that the relationship between her family and the main line royals has been pretty bad for some time because Prince Knud felt he should have stayed the heir. The rift has been heeled over the years, but I don't think that they are really very close.
So to me it seems likely that she will leave the jewels to her nieces. Of course there is the possibility that the heirs will offer it to the main line for sale. Maybe Princess Elisabeth already made a deal with the Queen. She just had to sell her house because of financial difficulties. So I can imagine that the Queen bought the tiara off her with the provision that the Princess can use it for life. All this is all speculation of course.
For the time being I hope that we will see Princess Elisabeth again at Queen Margrethe's birthday galas next month.

Lets hope that also her 3 nieces will attend at last one of the 2 Galas. Then we can see if one of them wears their mother's sapphire tiara.

I hope the same! For the 70th birthday at least the two eldest sisters attended the gala concert, but not the dinner at Fredensborg. For this year I fear that the concert ahead of the actual birthday might not be a tiara event. Let's keep our fingers crossed.

Tilla,
On one of your pictures of Princess Caroline Mathilde She wears a long necklace wth diamond and sapphires.
The Princess did a tiara from the necklace for Countess Anne-Dorte.

The sapphire tiara comes from Queen Alexandrine. But oringally it was smaller and Princess Caroline-Mathilde changed the center to how it looks now.

Correct Stephan !
I hope we will see the Anne Dorte tiara on one of her daughters for the Queen 75th Birthday.
