Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World
Members of the former royal family of Greece gathered in Athens on Friday for a celebration on the eve of the wedding of Princess Theodora, and there were some sparkling jewels on display for the occasion.
Tomorrow, Princess Theodora, daughter of the last King of Greece, will marry her American beau in a religious ceremony at the Metropolitan Cathedral in Athens. But the tiara that we expect she may wear comes from the other side of her royal heritage, linking together the British, Swedish, and Danish royal families. Today, let’s take a refreshed look at the Khedive of Egypt Tiara and the way that it unexpectedly became an heirloom bridal diadem for the daughters and granddaughters of a Danish queen.
This Saturday, we’ll finally get a glimpse of a royal bride we’ve been waiting to see for several years. Princess Theodora of Greece and Denmark will marry her American fiancé in Athens, and to begin the celebrations, we’ve got a look today at the royal tiaras she’s worn in public so far–and the one I think she may wear this weekend on her wedding day.
