Yes, the laurel and ears-of-wheat tiaras are still on her to-do list. Though I'm not sure that she likes them very much, or she would already have worn them. But I wonder if she'll come up with some more nice ideas for creating new tiara versions in the future. She was the first to be seen with the small setting of the Stuart tiara, or the enthronement version of the large sapphire tiara. The small sapphire tiara, the pearl version of the emerald parure, the festoon necklace tiara all appeared since she joined the family. I hope that she will come up with some more surprises for us.
Many of the tiara surprises over the past two decades came completely out of the blue. Who had ever thought that the sapphire necklace might be turned into a tiara? Or that the large sapphire tiara had a second setting? That pearls could be mounted on the emerald tiara? That the pearl buttons could be exchanged with the diamond stars?
Those two jewels are lovely, I adore them both. So elegant and delicate, perfect to add some sparkle to a black tie event. I especially loved how Maxima added the diamond comb to the back of her bun at Victoria's pre-wedding.
Thanks for reminding me about Queen Juliana. I'm probably too focused on tiaras and jewels worn in the hair, so I didn't take note of that before.
Though all in all, Queen Maxima seems to be the one who most enjoys being creative with the jewellery.
