From past experience @prince.of.preslav , Sotheby’s estimates are very much a come on figure and bear no resemblance to what the items actually sell for.

Yes, of course. And the auction result is usually way less than what they'd sell for by a retailer.
Regarding the ones I mentioned:
- the Turquoise tiara sold for 35k CHF + buyer's premium
- the bow tiara sold for 12.500 EUR + buyer's premium
- the floral tiara is yet to be sold

well i learnt something .....
Queen Máxima and King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands have been joined by their eldest daughter Princess Catharina-Amalia as they visit the Dutch Caribbean Islands.

On day two of their two-week visit to the various countries and municipalities of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the couple toured Bonaire alongside the 19-year-old princess.

Along with the Netherlands itself, the members are Aruba, Curaçao and St Maarten, each of which has King Willem-Alexander as its head of state and its own parliament.

Three further Caribbean islands, Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba, are administered as municipalities of the Netherlands and as such, inhabitants are Dutch citizens with the same rights and responsibilities.

Until 2010, all the Caribbean islands, with the exception of Aruba, were part of the Dutch Antilles - an entity that was dissolved and its residents given the choice of independence or integration.

The arrangement is similar to that between the Commonwealth Realms, all of which have Britain's monarch as head of state but have separate directly elected parliaments.

Diana was painted by Douglas Anderson in the gown. The portrait today hangs in London's Royal Marsden Hospital, which she often visited, supported and served as President for.

Glad to see Lady Susan in the royal fold again :)
Not so sure she'll attend the Coronation, but good to see her socialising with the royals again. She's always been a loyal friend.

That's a fun piece of royal jewellery on Camilla. I just hope the price is not somewhere in the vicinity of Maxima's necklace!

This piece reminds me of the Aasha recycled sari jewelry which is so beautiful.
