Imitation diamond tiara and bracelet, from the late 1920s or early 1930s. In need of cleaning and major repair. The bracelet has 2 missing “stones”, the tiara many. Perhaps for reuse of “stones” in jewellery making or as a repair project - the “stones” from the bracelet could be used to supply the missing ones in the tiara or vice versa. The tiara has been used for children’s dressing-up in the past but now has too many sharp bits. If repaired, it could be used for amateur dramatics.
