 Portrait of Duchess of York in 1928 wearing the Lotus Flower tiara after it was made by Garrard from a Greek-style necklace given to her by her husband the future George VI.  The Queen Mother, brought some 1920s flair to the piece by wearing it across her forehead in a bandeau style. But she soon packed it away until it emerged after she gave it to her younger daughter in 1959.

Princess Margaret sported the Lotus Flower Tiara in 1960 at the Thailand embassy.
