The Fife Tiara, given to Queen Victoria’s granddaughter Princess Louise on her wedding day in 1889, is today considered one of the finest works produced by celebrated Parisian jeweller Oscar Massin, and represents the very zenith of tiara design. A gift from Louise’s husband the Duke of Fife, it comprises hundreds of diamonds ranging in weight from one to ten carats, and features a spectacular row of pear shaped ‘swing set’ diamonds, which would have dazzled onlookers when worn.

Day 9 - Favorite all Diamond Tiara
The Fife Tiara
A superb tiara of diamonds, composed of some hundreds of stones, ranging in weight from one carat to ten, the larger being cut on both sides and turning on pivots, so that they will flash with every movement of the head.” The tiara appears to have been constructed using a design dreamed up by the nineteenth-century tiara master Oscar Massin. - the court jeweller.com

my favorite royal portraits are infinite... However, I would love to share each and every one of them with you...🥺🫶💓
I'm obsessed with these 3 portraits of Queen Victoria's family, all painted by court painter Franz Xaver Winterhalter...🥰
1. Princess Alice of United Kingdom is wearing a white ball dress and a black shawl. Originally she held a wreath of flowers in her hand, but this was changed as the painting progressed. Franz Xaver Winterhalter began the painting on 4 June 1861 and on 13 June Queen Victoria wrote in her Journal that he had 'finished Alice's beautiful picture, which is so like & fine'.
Alice was the third child and second daughter of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. Known for her sweet nature, she often took on the role of peacekeeper in the royal household. Princess Helena, her sister, described her as 'loving Daughter and Sister, the devoted Wife and Mother, and a perfect, true Woman'.
2. Princess Louise of United kingdom was the sixth of Queen Victoria's nine children. Beautiful and artistic, as an adult she supported the women's movement and helped launch the Girls Public Day School Company.
3. Queen Victoria with her Four Eldest Children, Victoria Princess Royal, Prince Edward, Princess Alice, Prince Alfred.
The Queen asked Winterhalter to copy and arrange to her own design ‘my portrait with the 4 children’ from the central group in his painting of The Reception of Louis-Philippe, King of the French, at Windsor Castle, 8 October 1844.
She was pleased with the painting and noted in her Journal that it ‘looks quite lovely’.
