This one belonged to Marie Valerie:










I second tiara is property of the Bulgarian royal family. How did it come from Austrian Imperial Family to Bulgarian Royal Family?

The diamond lettice tiara worn by Alice, Ducky and Onor is still intact. It was last seen in the Tiara exhibition in the V&A in London and photographed in Jeffery Munn's fab book. The emerald and star tiaras last seen worn by Cecilie of Greece was never seen again.

I have never seen the two tiaras that you menton on your post (the emerald and star tiaras). Do you have pics of the two jewel?

Regards and thanks in advance!

Hello! I have read that Hannover Crown Jewels were returned to Hannover family by William II when V. Louise of Prussia got married with Erns August of Hannover. Is it true?

One is the Meander Tiara (which has a Greek key design on the top and bottom) the other is her Faberge Tiara. The former was presented to Cecile on her wedding day by Crown Prince Wilhelm and was worn by Grand Duchess Kira at her wedding.The Faberge was received as a wedding gift from her russian relatives, thus the kokoshnik design. She wrote in her last will about a diamond diadem with 15 stones of 13,9 carat and about 2300 smaller brilliants. That could be this one. Her daughter Cecile wore it at her wedding.


Do you know who gave the Greek tiara to Ceclie?

Where are nowadays these tiaras?

Regards and thanks!
