Queen Sonja of Norway chose a tiara known as the Maltese Cross Circlet for a traditional celebration at Oslo’s Royal Palace last December.
It was an appropriate pick as Queen Sonja was at the annual dinner for Norway’s bishops, along with her husband, King Harald, and their son, Crown Prince Haakon.
Queen Victoria left the tiara to the Crown and her daughter-in-law, Queen Alexandra, wanted the opals removed as she thought them unlucky.
The Maltese Crosses Circlet is also part of the considerable influence that Alexandra had on royal jewels.
Maud only had one son, who became King Olav V of Norway, and who inherited many of his mother’s jewels.
