Sotheby's is holding the UK's largest tiara exhibition in two decades.
“The Queen’s Jubilee celebrations have given us the perfect opportunity to put on public display an outstanding selection of tiaras from noble and royal provenance, many of which haven’t been exhibited in decades,” Kristian Spofforth, the head of jewelry at Sotheby’s London, said in a statement.
The Spencer Tiara features a garland-style design with a heart-shaped motif set with diamonds and star- and trumpet-shaped flowers also set with diamonds. It was originally created in 1767, and the design was changed over time as it was passed down in the Spencer family. Princess Diana most notably wore it during her 1981 wedding to Prince Charles, but she also donned the tiara during several white-tie events.Of course, several other stunning pieces will be showcased alongside the Spencer Tiara.
