It was one of Margaret\u2019s favourite tiaras and its splendour perfectly suited her personality greatly. The magnificent tiara consists of all-diamonds set in gold and silver and has a diameter of 19.2 centimetres. It is a convertible piece of jewellery that can be broken down into a necklace and eleven brooches. After Margaret\u2019s death in 2002, it met a grim fate (as seen with the eyes of a royalist) when it was auctioned off at Christie\u2019s in 2006 by her children Viscount Linley and Lady Sarah Chatto for a staggering \u00a3926,400 (the value had originally been estimated at \u00a3150,000\u2013\u00a3200,000) due to its provenance. The sale of the tiara reportedly caused a row between Viscount Linley and his father, Lord Snowdon, because Lord Snowdon was opposed selling out of his late ex-wife\u2019s jewellery.
