Wedding G&S: The wedding tiara

Photobucket
The tiara the new HRH Princess Stéphanie of Luxembourg, née Countess of Lannoy, wore to her wedding is the Lannoy family tiara.

The tiara is composed of 270 old-cut brilliants set in platinum, with a diamond in an inverted pear shape superimposed in the centre. A dozen larger brilliants stand out owing to their closed sets, appearing like buttons along the patterns of leafed scrolls. The contours of the tiara, traced by the arrangements of the stones, are underlined by a thin line of platinum gilded pearls. The tiara was created by the firm Altenloh de Bruxelles in 1878.
