Sparkling Royal Jewels From Around the World
The “six” years are always big ones for the Bernadottes, thanks to the King’s birth year (1946) and the King and Queen’s wedding year (1976). Today, our Tiara Time Machine brings us to 2006, when another milestone birthday celebration brought out a pair of fringe tiaras for two Swedish princesses.
Let’s all jump in the Tiara Time Machine again today and head to 1996, when the glamorous Princess Caroline of Monaco brought out her grandmother’s jewels for a special celebration in Sweden.
Today, our Tiara Time Machine is stopping in 1986, when the Prince and Princess of Wales headed to the Middle East for a tour through several nations. In Bahrain, Diana wore her family tiara with a classic ivory gown.
While Europe’s royals are off enjoying their August holidays, we’re going to be spending this week aboard our Tiara Time Machine, enjoying bejeweled moments from the last fifty years. Today, we’re starting off with a glamorous dinner held in 1976 in Amsterdam, featuring tiaras worn by the Queens of the Netherlands and Sweden.
We’re back in Spain today, where the royal family is in full summer mode in the Balearic Islands. For the annual dinner at Marivent Palace, all of the royal ladies wore interesting jewelry—but Queen Sofia wins the award for the most intriguing piece of the night.
