Magnificent and Historic Natural pearl and diamond tiara/necklace
"One of the most important tiaras to appear at auction in recent years, this royal tiara dates to the second half of the 19th century. Steeped in the rich history of the House of Savoy, this tiara hails an extraordinary provenance. Likely to have been presented to Maria Vittoria dal Pozzo in 1867 as a wedding gift on the occasion of her marriage to Amedeo of Savoy, Duke of Aosta, later elected King of Spain as Amadeo I (1870- 1873), the tiara, which has remained with the family for over 150 years, is believed to have been created by Musy Padre e Figli – Court Jeweller of Turin, and one of the oldest goldsmiths in Europe.
Composed of graduated scroll motifs set with cushion-shaped, circular- and single-cut diamonds, framing eleven slightly baroque drop-shaped natural pearls, the jewel has more recently been seen worn as an elegant necklace.
The tiara is designed as a succession of eleven graduated scroll motifs, each composed of a natural pearl surrounded by old cut diamonds. The surmount rests on a detachable band composed of cluster and bar motifs set with cushion-shaped diamonds. The scroll motifs are detachable and may be adapted and worn as a necklace. The tiara, which was created by Musy, belonged to Maria Vittoria Carlotta Enrichetta Giovanna dal Pozzo della Cisterna (1847-1876), Duchess of Aosta and Queen of Spain."

Queen Claudia of Denmark, Princess of Savoy
Her Majesty Queen Claudia, consort of Denmark, was born as the youngest daughter of Emanuele Filiberto of Savoy, Prince of Venice and his wife Clotilde Courau, after her sisters Vittoria and Luisa. Her Majesty married His Majesty King Christian at the age of 25. After one year, the couple was given a gift from God with a daughter named Alexandra. Crown Princess Alexandra is currently 2 years old, and last week the royal couple announced that The Queen is pregnant again. This time twins will be born. Queen Claudia is well-known for her good heart and wisdom, but she also has awesome style and breathtaking beauty. She styles her own clothes and combines the jewelry she received from her husband's family and old Savoy pieces.

Key figures in the story of the shooting in Cavallo
Dirk Hamer - An athletic, friendly 19 year old German who died after being shot in the early hours of 18th August 1978. He was asleep on a boat near the island of Cavallo after a day trip with his sister and her friends.
Prince Vittorio Emanuele and Princess Marina - The son of the last King of Italy. He was alleged to have fired the shot that killed Dirk following a heated encounter on a neighbouring boat. His wife Marina was his staunchest defender throughout.
Birgit Hamer - Dirk's older sister, a model and former Miss Germany. After her brother's death, she would dedicate the next 40 years to getting justice for him.
Beatrice Borromeo - Best known as the daughter in law of Monaco's Princess Caroline, she is a journalist and family friend of Birgit. She was crucial in uncovering Vittorio's bombshell confession and directed a documentary on Dirk's death.

The Queen, who was the sister of the Empress of Austria, the Comtesse de Frani, the unfortunate Duchess of Alençon, and the Princess of Thurn and Taxis, had exchanged the freedom of her Bavarian mountains for the stifling atmosphere od the Court of Naples, where bigotry and despotism ruled, and where Royalty relied at the same time on police and brigands. The young Queen, who was broad-minded and accessible to modern ideas, tried to persuade her husband that he ought to grant the reforms the country claimed. Her influence was counteracted by that of Father Borelli, confessor to King Francis II.
Memories of a Shipwrecked World, Marie Kleinmichael, 1923

Still waiting for the italian version of the Crown with our royal family, the Savoia, just to be able to look on the screen at our last Queen, Maria Josè of Belgium being a badass while being the only royal hating on Mussolini (as they should all have)
We love the only valid member of the italian royal family, our Queen of May!

“I know the Greek Royal Family (specially Marie Chantal) are cringe but at least they still look classier than the Two Sicilies and Savoy and the Greeks have interesting ancestry, the Savoy's and Two Sicilies aren't connected to royalty for like 2 generations” - Submitted by Anonymous
