Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World
On Monday, the royal world said farewell to Archduchess Margherita of Austria-Este, the Italian princess who married a son of the last Emperor of Austria. Today, to celebrate her life, we’ve got a look at her impressive bejeweled legacy.
On Friday, the Danish royal family marked an important milestone: the Golden Jubilee of Queen Margrethe II. The Queen has been on the throne since January 14, 1972. While glittering celebrations are planned for later in the year, the royal family participated in several events to mark the anniversary yesterday.
We’ve been covering the Queen’s sparkling diamond tiaras all week, but I’ve saved one of my favorites for last: Queen Alexandra’s Kokoshnik. Today, we’ve got an appearance in Paris of a Russian-inspired tiara made for a Danish princess who became a British queen consort.
