Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World
This week, we’re talking all about the tiaras worn by Princess Margaret of Connaught, the British princess who is also the ancestor of today’s Swedish and Danish royals. Today, we’re chatting about a tiara that she borrowed during her time in Sweden: the Cameo Tiara.
On Saturday, the world marked the 140th anniversary of the birth of Princess Margaret of Connaught, the ancestor of many of today’s Scandinavian royals. To celebrate, we’re dedicating this week’s Sparkling Spotlight posts to some of her grandest jewels, which are still being worn by her royal descendants today. We’re beginning things with a romantic wedding tiara worn by her Danish descendants.
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.
