  • Tiara refers to a jeweled headpiece that a woman wears for important formal occasions. A tiara usually looks like a small crown and is often worn by royalty or nobility. The largest collection of tiaras in the world is said to belong to Queen Elizabeth II.
    Today, the word "tiara" is often used interchangeably with the word "diadem", and tiara is often translated to a word similar to diadem in other languages. Both words come from head ornaments worn by ancient men and women to denote high status. As Geoffrey Munn notes, "The word 'tiara' is actually Persian in origin-the name first denoted the high-peaked head-dresses of Persian kings, which were encircled by 'diadems' (bands of purple and white decoration). Now, it is used to describe almost every form of decorative head ornament." Ancient Greeks and Romans used gold to make wreath-shaped head ornaments, while the Scythians' resembled a stiff halo that would serve as the inspiration for later Russian kokoshniks. The use of tiaras and diadems declined along with the decline of the Roman Empire and the rise of Christianity.

    My aunt Emma, a daughter of a poor farmer was married to Russian royalty before WW2, and after her husband died during the war (husband and her father was shot on her birthday by the Germans when fleeing Poland) had to give up her royal title as there were no children to inherit the titles. All jewelry was also to be returned to the royal family. When she immigrated to Canada and married a Canadian Polish descendant, her husband, just an average worker in a factory in Toronto, Ontario, bought my Aunt Emma an emerald ring. She was his Canadian princess and he would do his best to give her a lovely emerald ring as best as he could afford. Aunt Emma worked in a mattress factory, sewing mattresses until her Canadian husband passed away. She moved to Edmonton, Alberta and passed away a few years later after a debilitating stroke. An amazing woman, who should have become a doctor.

      I agree. I will say though that wearing such an expensive and important piece is very overwhelming. Obviously, I never had the opportunity to wear a royal tiara. However, I once had the opportunity to try on a ring found in the Atocha Shipwreck sunk in 1622.
      My parents and I were visiting a Shipwreck museum and some of their other finds were available for purchase in a fine jewelry store located after the tour. Many pieces were reproductions, but some were authentic. My dad was interested in some of the pieces and I guess the employee knew he was a serious buyer and actually took this huge emerald set on a small gold ring and let my mother and I try it on
      Im petite and it only fit my pinky finger and felt absolutely overwhelmed trying on a 400 year old ring that was probably meant for a Queen.
      It was an experience I will never forget.
      I joked with them afterwards that unless I was with them, there was no way that oppertunity would have been offered to me.

You'd love the pear shape stone I purchased last year that is a teal shade of Aquamarine but not dark. I plan to make it into a pendant with a diamond halo but not right up against the stone so there will be negative space to highlight the Aqumarine.

They didn't have any diamonds but bezel setting on two sides which made them look that little bit different than regular claw set studs. Of course I put on a deposit and paid them off as a Christmas present to myself that year. It was almost two years later that I saw the ring which was also set the same way, same colour stone and cut, white gold but it did have three channel set diamonds on each side. So you never know when that matching necklace will turn up!

    The Kokoshnik tiara is shown alongside a photo of Her Majesty on the day of her wedding to the Duke of Edinburgh, but that was not the Kokoshnik. It is the George III Fringe Tiara. The two look very similar. The fringe has smaller pikes between the larger one. And the pikes on the Kokoshnik are rounded whereas those on the Fringe Tiara are more pointed. Otherwise love the video.

      There was more than one French Revolution. The revolution the video is referring to is most likely the February Revolution of 1848, which happened about 18 years after the July Revolution (1789), but it's often forgotten because of Napoleon.

    How am I to pick a favourite from these incredible works of art? So I won't. I do get upset each time I see the one with the Emeralds atop and cringe that the actually drilled through them! Ouch!! There were some at the start that also deserved at least a viewing. The unusual modern look to the Queen Elizabeth II Aquamarine was stunning but have never seen her wear it. The Marie Therese Emerald and Diamond Tiara was at the top too. I do feel sorry for The Duchess of Cambridge always being compared to Diana. I wish the public would let her be her own woman. Anyone who knows me knows that my taste is more for coloured gems but in this list even the White Diamonds made an big impact. The reason Queen Elizabeth II has the largest collection would be due to her age and popularity. She has had more time to put together and be gifted more jewels. Thanks again Andrew. Would love to view some of the others from the start not in top 10? Kris from Australia.

    Perfect emeralds are historically really hard to come by- *especially* as they get bigger, so each one of those tiaras is very special.

There were a few at the start that were spectacular, especially the Aquamarine Tiara but not the one in the top 10.

      Constance Krischan To be honest I can't even remember how long I've been subscribed for but it's well over a year. I was really impressed over the footage as well as details about the jewellery pieces. I always say that I was deprived as a child and since as my parents never gave me jewellery except for my first watch. They have always known my love for jewellery but due to my mother not that interested, although that shouldn't matter, I never got any, not even sterling silver! So, since settling into my current location about five years ago I discovered the greatest Jewellery Store (Wangaratta Jewellers, VIC, Australia) and first went in for a watch band. That was enough to get me hooked as they have the most amazing and unusual pieces that you'll never see anyone else wearing or find these rarer gems also. I even have a two-tone Rose and White Gold Italian made Necklace that is the only one in this Continent! So ever since discovering them I am rarely without at least one item on lay-by (I think you call it lay-away?) at a time constantly. I've definitely accumulated a great collection and still going. I'll be picking up a two-tone Yellow and White Gold Ring with five bezel set Diamonds on it very soon. Due to my love of unusual and coloured gems, I've done quite alot of research which is how I found Andrews Channel and Subscribed straight away! I'm yet to go through every video on other topics but I'll get there!

You might choose to change that.
