AN EARLY 20TH CENTURY CONVERTIBLE DIAMOND FLORAL TIARA/NECKLACE CIRCA 1910With seven graduated old mine cut diamond set gold backed silver flower heads, with screw fittings verso, one later, with rose cut and mine cut diamond set foliate links, with a diamond set foliate band below, approximately 12 carats total, with removable tiara frame, the bottom band with a clasp so the two sections can be made into a necklace, with additional brooch and earring fittings, with a fitted Carrington & Co. caseSize/dimensions: the rise of the tiara is 4.7cm high, necklace is 37cm long Gross weight: tiara 57.3 gramsProvenanceThe tiara was made by Carrington in London for Phyllis Elinor Turner (1893-1958) for her presentation at court, possibly at Holyrood Palace in Edinburgh, before her marriage to Gilbert Maxwell Adair Graham on the 19th June 1913.
