Few examples of royal jewelry set with spinels are as magnificent as this incredible parure, made for a Queen of Bavaria almost two centuries ago. Today, we’ve got a look at the tiara from the suite, worn by Crown Princess Antonia.
A Spinel Tiara for an Aristocratic Bride
Our Sparkling Spotlight on the spectacular spinel continues today with a look at an unusual tiara worn by a British duchess with major imperial history. Here’s more on the Bagration Tiara worn by Natalia, Duchess of Westminster.
The Black Prince’s Ruby
Five years ago, August babies were given the gift of a brand-new alternate birthstone. Along with the grassy green peridot, the spinel was named by the American Gem Trade Association as August’s second gem option. (Always good to drum up additional sales, of course!) This week’s Sparkling Spotlight will be shining on some famous royal spinels—starting with the most famous of all, the Black Prince’s Ruby.
