With the addition of a yellow metal and rose cut diamond ‘knife-edge’ chain and a bespoke screwdriver, the tiara converts to a necklace.
Offered in its original box on June 17, it sold at £32,000 (plus 24% buyer’s premium).

This late Victorian Garrard & Co pearl and diamond tiara was described by Great Western Auctions in Glasgow as ‘the ultimate in metamorphic jewels’.
