Very practical of the late Queen , she witnessed the dispersal of pretty much the entire Belgian collection , through marriage or sale . The Royal Family is lucky they went down the Netherlands route . Thankyou for the information .

The Danes did not go down the Netherland route where different ladies from the family have access to the pot of jewellery. The Danes merely created a pot that are held in trust for the monarch.
That said, Ingrid also gave away 4 tiaras to Benedikte and Anne-Marie, which did reduce the size and scale of the Danish royal jewellery collection.

I don't remember if the Ladies wore tiaras inside the Church for a Royal Greece Wedding ?

No, the bride is the only one wearing a tiara at Greek royal weddings.

Interesting, she did that for the Floral Aigrette Tiara, but then bequeathed the ruby parure to Frederik keeping it private property. Hopefully, Ingrid had a strong hankering for the parure to be worn by her beloved grandson's wife but then made it clear that it should ultimately end up in the trust.
Just to clarify, can jewels in the trust be worn by any royal the monarch designates, or are all or certain ones earmarked for the monarch or consort?

Not sure about the regulations about the Jewels in the Trust. For the coronations in 1937 and 1953 the pearl Parure was given to then Crown Princess Ingrid and Princess Margaretha to wear so it seems it is net set in stone that the Jewels can only worn by the Queen of the Day

I really hope she will be wearing something more substantial than that. The floral tiara would be wonderful, esp. as the piece has a German provenance as it belonged to the Mecklenburg family. Alternatively the Orange/Nassau tiara would be a good choice, as it was made in Berlin.

Has the German visit been upgraded to a state visit, or is it an official visit only?
