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.

Royal Tiaras Highlights: Margaret Greville's Emerald Kokoshnik Tiara

The tiara was made in 1921 by Boucheron for Dame Margaret Greville, who famously bequeathed her jewelry to Queen Elizabeth (the Queen Mother) in 1942. The diamond and emerald tiara, which features a large cabochon emerald as its central element, was made in 1919, two years earlier than previously stated. The press release from the palace - released on Princess Eugenie’s wedding day - described the tiara as “made of brilliant and rose cut diamonds pavé set in platinum, with six emeralds on either side.” The release also noted that the tiara’s design was inspired by the kokoshniks that had been popular at the imperial court of the Romanovs in Russia.

Tiara by Cartier - diamonds set in white gold

[kristabella]

The unique gold, pearl, and cameo tiara from the Swedish royal vaults is packed with history and symbolism, from its initial creation story in Napoleonic France to the tales told by the individual cameos in the piece. Today, we’re unpacking both, with some fantastic close-up views of the parure.

The Cameo Parure, now owned by the Bernadottes of Sweden, was originally given by Napoleon I to Empress Josephine in 1809. The set includes a tiara, a necklace, a bracelet, and a pair of earrings. Today, the parure also includes a brooch, which is believed to be a slightly later addition to the suite. Above, Queen Silvia wears the entire parure—tiara, earrings, necklace, brooch, and bracelet (on her right wrist)—for the Nobel Prize ceremony in 2005.

The tiara made its way from imperial France to royal Sweden by a slightly circuitous route. It was inherited by Josephine’s son, Eugene de Beauharnais, and then passed on to his daughter, Queen Josefina of Sweden and Norway. She bequeathed the cameos to her daughter, Princess Eugenie; she bequeathed it to her nephew, Prince Eugen. He gave the set to Princess Sibylla, mother of the present king, as a wedding gift in 1932, and it has remained with the Bernadottes in Stockholm ever since.

With a central cameo depicting two gods of love, and a shape resembling traditional Scandinavian bridal crowns, it’s no surprise that this fragile, delicate heirloom has become the Bernadotte family bridal tiara. It’s been worn by two of the king’s sisters, Princess Birgitta and Princess Desiree, on their wedding days. It was also worn by his wife, Queen Silvia, at their wedding in 1976, and by their elder daughter, Crown Princess Victoria, at her wedding in 2010.

Royal Tiaras Highlights: Spanish Floral Tiara

The piece was designed by J.P. Collins in 1879 as a gift from King Alfonso XII of Spain to his future wife Archduchess Maria Christina of Austria. The tiara was sold in the 1930s by the family when they went into exile and it was eventually bought by Francisco Franco as a wedding gift to Princess Sophia of Greece and Denmark, future Queen Sofia of Spain. The tiara is a personal possession of Sofia, but Queen Letizia has worn it publicly in many occasions.
