    The Poltimore requires that the wearer's personality be larger and more vivid than the tiara; not many could stand up to it. Margaret certainly fulfilled that requirement and then some!

    Not that I would know, but if you are fortunate enough to own a tiara, wear it whenever and wherever you please, including the bathtub. It's a shame when items are sold to private collectors and disappear completely from public view.

    Paltimore is my FAVOURITE tiara of ALL TIME! lts SO beautiful, lts SO stunning, lts SO well thought out. l take a breath every time l see a picture of it on Margaret. l'm quite sad it was sold, as it would have been WONDERFUL to see it on another.

    The video is totally ruined by the poor narration
    Names of Jeweller and people who are well know are incorrectly pronounced.
    Is it really that difficult to do some prior planning?
    The channel is focused on Royal jewels but can not even get the correct pronunciation of the court jeweller - WOEFUL

    I followed this Tiara;s auction closely. I spoke to 2 different people at the auction house. Both confirmed that the buyer did not want to be named. The Queen and Prince Phillip bought this Tiara for Margarets wedding present. Naturally it held a great store of memories for her Majesty. If she gave cash to Margarets children then they would have to pay tax on the amount. So this is what I surmise, the Queen had one of her private secretaries bid on the Tiara and bid to win, after all the Queen was very wealthy. The Tiara is sitting on a metal shelf in one of Buckingham Palaces basements where her jewelry is kept. I don't know if she told David and Sarah that she had the Tiara? Her Majesty was able to look at this Tiara , perhaps on the Birthday of Margaret. It has never been seen in Public and probably never will. The Queen would not want to see anyone else wear this beautiful Tiara so I truly believe she purchased it so it was back in the family. Camilla will never be seen in this Tiara as it was Margarets personal jewelry which in theory belongs to Margarets children. I think my investigation of this Tiara ( which is my personal pick) has come to the right conclusion. We may now look at photos of Margaret wearing this Tiara and enjoy her beauty and sense of humor for eternity.

  • @almclester
    @almclester 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +29

    With regard to Margaret breaking the rule about not wearing a tiara until after her marriage. That rule is only for women who marry into the royal family. Princess Margaret was born a royal, so those rules did not apply to her. This is why her official title was Princess Royal and not just Princess. Princess Anne now has that title, and once Princess Anne passes away, it will probably be bestowed on Charlotte.

    • @YoukonJill
      @YoukonJill 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +11

      Princess Margaret was a princess of the blood but never princess Royal. Princess Royal is reserved for the firstborn daughter of the king. This title was held by Mary, countess harewood who was the daughter of George V. After she died, princess Anne was given the title by Queen Elizabeth II

    I think with the bath photo, she'd probably had her hair and makeup done for an event early in the day before she'd had her bath and that was why she was wearing the tiara in the bath as to not mess her hair uo

  • @Fatima_Garabandal2251
    @Fatima_Garabandal2251 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    I'll never understand why we have to pay taxes on property that was taxed when bought with money that has already been taxed when earned by the person who earned it. You would think Margaret would have been smart enough to set up a living trust and just name her kids as beneficiaries and then they wouldn't have to pay taxes. Also at the least I would have expected he Queen to have purchased it.

    • @misottovoce
      @misottovoce 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      You are right...however, the 'voice' could still get it wrong. Try eh-PIT-oh-me. However, in French it is accented on the first and last 'e'= épitomé (Latin-Greco etomology).

      You are right if you count at the current exchange rate. However, if we move back to 2006 when the tiara was sold, the realisation price of GBP 926,400 is equivalent to 1.7 million USD
