Isn't this the tiara Princess Michael wears?
Who's daughter?I am sure you know most of this but her daughter bacame Queen Marie of Roumania.
The most I have read about her was in the book "The Last Romanitc".
Does anyone have any fotos of the Grand Duchess Maria Alexandrovna, Duchess of Edinburgh & of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha wearing her magnificent jewels? I recall bumping into this website which had a beautiful portrait of her, the Duke of Coburg and her children attending the coronation of the Tsar Nicholas II in 1896. However, I cannot recall which one it was. I would be most grateful if anyone would be kind enough to post these pictures. Or else any fotos of her in her jewels would be good enough.
I did manage to save the beautiful portrait showing the Duke & Duchess of Edinburgh, the Hereditary Prince Alfred & the Princess Marie & the Grand Duke & Grand Duchess of Hesse. I forgot that I had saved the photo into my computer. I'm not sure of the website i had saved it from. More photos of the bejeweled Grand Duchess Maria please..... anyone.
Warren, did they come from GD Paul's 1st wife?She had quite a collection of jewels, this is one of them.

The Faberge eggs are the testament to the great craftsmanship. Fine detailing and exquisite design are just breathtaking.
They still have some of them. See hereThank you, Russo!
I think the article meant the important, historical pieces (family tiaras, historical jewellery).
