In 1893, a committee of ladies from the British Isles and Ireland banded together to raise money for a wedding gift for the (then) Princess Mary of Teck. Headed by Lady Eve Greville, the committee raised over £5,000, was able to purchase the diamond tiara from Garrard, London and had leftover money to boot. They did this because…well, people just banded together and presented grandiose gifts in the Nineteenth century. The leftover sterling went to charity at the request of the Princess Mary.
Next up, the substantial and impressive diamond tiara of Queen Sophia of Greece, nee Prussia. This piece was a gift from her family when she wed Crown Prince Constantine of Greece on 27 October 1889.

This is the Portland Sapphire Tiara. It was created around 1890, probably by Garrard. The 6th Duke of Portland bought it for his wife, Winifred Dallas-Yorke. Five of the sapphires came from Ceylon, four from Burma, and the last three are anyone’s guess. The pearls are all natural saltwater pearls. The Duke broke up at least three other pieces of jewelry in 1887 in order to create this new tiara. See a new tiara every Tuesday on http://JenniWiltz.com/blog. #tiaratuesday

Queen Elizabeth so liked this aquamarine set that in 1957 she commissioned Garrards & Co, London to create a matching tiara for her. This tiara originally was in the form of a bandeau with 3 upright detachable aquamarines (that could be worn as brooches) on a platinum band. The central large aquamarine was the original necklace pendant drop given to the Queen in 1953. Queen Elizabeth had the tiara redesigned in 1971.
