Right... Three out of four:
CRYSTAL
VERSAILLES
ALEXANDRA
= Palace...
Which, as I don't know it, only as a camera, I pick:
HASSELBLAD.
Leaving:
KEYSTONE BOILER MUSTARD PEARL
MOTH COBWEB ARMOUR MEMORY
TIN DIANA ARIEL LICENSE
But then:
TIN
PEARL
CRYSTAL

I'll go with my first option...

I think MMF got the palaces
VERSAILLES CRYSTAL ALEXANDRA and HASSELBLAD
and Clive got the plates:
BOILER TIN ARMOUR LICENSE
we'll go with fairies (Shakesperean, to be specific)
MOTH COBWEB ARIEL MUSTARD
which leaves
DIANA MEMORY KEYSTONE PEARL
which I'm going to have a stab at - jewellry settings.
