Object Description
An exceptional antique tiara. Tiaras have a way of capturing the imagination like few other pieces of jewellery can: since ancient times, they have symbolised status, nobility, and romance. In the late nineteenth-century, tiaras were at their peak in popularity. This tiara, created in around 1890, exemplifies the ornate opulence of the period. The wonderfully sparkling diamonds are arranged in a floral design: flowers, leaves, and vines weave through the tiara. Today, tiaras can be worn to weddings, white-tie events, and state occasions. This tiara can be transformed into a necklace, suitable for a black-tie event or a night at the opera. Romantic and naturalistic, this tiara is truly spectacular.
