A Roundup Of Exceptional Emerald Tiaras For This Tiara Tuesday

Описание: It's tiara roundup time! For this Tiara Tuesday, I have a selection of some of my favorite emerald tiaras. A rather small selection, because there are a hell of a lot of incredible tiaras! Iran alone has at least half a dozen amazing examples, though for this video I could only choose 2.

From 18th century emeralds in modern art deco settings, to both 19th and 21st century naturalistic forms, emeralds lend themselves incredibly well to regal headwear. It is no surprise that they figure so prominently in tiaras, both royal and otherwise.

If you missed last month's discussion of the Crown of the Andes, an incredibly significant emerald crown made by destroying looted and stolen indigenous pre-Columbian artifacts, it's worth watching to see one of the most lavish and heartbreaking examples of emerald crowns.
