Crystal Fringe Tiara Earrings

Subtotal: £55.00

The range is inspired by one of Queen Elizabeth's II's favourite Tiara's. In 1893 a committee was formed by Lady Greville to raise money from the Girls of Great Britain & Northern Ireland to buy a wedding present for the then Princess Mary of Teck - later to become Queen Mary. They collectively raised £5,000 and bought a tiara from the Crown jewellers - Garrards. It was a festoon and scroll design, surmounted by nine large oriental pearls on diamond spikes. This was then mounted on a bandeau base of alternate round and lozenge collets between two bands of diamonds. It was adapted and worn by Queen Mary throughout her life, and in 1947 she gave it to Princess Elizabeth (Later to become Queen Elizabeth II) as a wedding gift. This was the first tiara the present Queen ever owned, which she still affectionately calls 'Granny's Tiara'.

Jewellery Care

We wish for you to enjoy your jewellery for as long as possible, and therefore recommend you read the following care instructions.

Please do not expose the jewellery to harsh chemicals, extreme temperatures or sunlight for a prolonged period.

Please make sure to apply cosmetics, perfume and hairspray prior to putting on the jewellery to avoid possible blemishing and discolouration.

Do remove the jewellery when performing any activity which may cause damage to the product, e.g. exercising, showering or performing household tasks.

Store each piece of jewellery separately as constant brushing together can damage the finish.

Acid in your skin and fragrances can attack the plated finish and so from time to time you should gently wash the items in your hands with warm soapy water.

Do not use brushes or cloths. Rinse in warm water and dry carefully.

Avoid using Ultrasonic jewellery cleaner which can dislodge the stones.
