Wonderful Weekends (Portrait of the Arch Duchess of Fulco D'Este)

The Royal Family of Fulco DÉste was one of the fortunate beneficiaries of the recent discovery of forgotten historic jewellery in Reichenthal. The Consort Arch Duchess' Diadem was found among the vast amounts of other historic treasures and returned to the Arch Duke Otto Von Fulco D'Este on behalf of his nation. To commemorate the return of the diadem and to celebrate the amicable relationship that has developed between the people of Fulco D'Este and its previously exiled claimant to the defunct throne, the Arch Duke has has a portrait taken of his wife wearing the diadem as is her right as Consort Arch Duchess.

Her Royal Highness the Arch Duchess of Fulco D'Este nee Princess Marie-Elizabeth of Swann wears the unique diadem in this State Portrait. 

This close up of the official diadem gives us a detailed look at the historically valuable piece.
