      The author answers questions of \textit{L. Simon} [Lectures on geometric measure theory. Canberra: Centre for Mathematical Analysis, Australian National University (1983; Zbl 0546.49019), p. 243] and \textit{W. K. Allard} [Ann. Math. (2) 95, 417--491 (1972; Zbl 0252.49028)] and proves the following two results: -- there exists a stationary rectifiable 2-varifold in \({\mathbb R}^4\) that has a non-conical (hence non-unique) tangent at a point; -- there exists a stationary rectifiable 2-varifold in \({\mathbb R}^4\) that has a conical but non-unique tangent at a point.
