Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World
What a year it’s been for jewelry-loving visitors to London’s museums and galleries! The royal tiaras displayed at the V&A and the King’s Gallery take the sixth spot on my countdown of the best royal jewelry moments of the year—and also my personal favorite jewelry experience in recent memory!
When a Danish princess turns eighteen, she’s given a tiara to wear for gala occasions with the royal family. This year, Queen Margrethe delighted us with her gift for her granddaughter. The seventh spot on my countdown of the best royal jewels of the year goes to Princess Isabella’s debut in the Turquoise Daisy Bandeau.
Unlike many royal families, Sweden’s royals tend to share their tiaras rather generously within the family circle. Even so, it’s still news when a princess wears an antique tiara for the first time, and Princess Madeleine’s debut in her great-grandmother’s ruby tiara lands at the eighth spot on my countdown of the best jewels of the year.
