Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World
The finale of Ruby Tiara Celebration Week doubles as a birthstone-appropriate birthday tribute. Queen Camilla, who turns 79 today, has embraced her mother-in-law’s ruby and diamond tiara, including a memorable appearance during the Japanese state visit two years ago.
The Princess of Wales wore regal rubies at Wimbledon last weekend, but she pulled off an even bigger ruby surprise in December, wearing Queen Victoria’s remarkable circlet for the German state banquet at Windsor.
The third stop during our Ruby Tiara Celebration Week brings us again to Stockholm, where the Queen of Denmark brought her royal ruby tiara back to its old home for a special appearance in 2024.
Ruby Tiara Celebration Week continues here at TCJ today with a look at a fascinating ruby tiara debut from Princess Madeleine of Sweden back in May 2025, featuring a jewel that belonged to a particularly beloved Swedish crown princess.
July is the month for celebrating the remarkable ruby, and I’ve decided to declare this the official Ruby Tiara Celebration Week of the summer here at TCJ. We’ll be looking at some fabulous recent ruby tiara appearances from the past few years over the next five days, starting off with a closer look at a moment from just a few weeks ago: the Princess of Orange wearing Queen Emma’s rubies during the Japanese state visit to the Netherlands.
