Tiaras worn by Margaret that are speculated to still be in the Vault/reverted back to the QEII. But they could’ve been sold off and no longer in the possession of the BRF
– Queen Mary’s Sapphire Bandeau
– Persian Turquoise Tiara
I hate Sophie’s aquamarine necklace/tiara. Her wedding tiara is also terrible but she had it reconfigured and it looks better now.
I love when they suddenly pull out a tiara that hasn’t ever been seen or hasn’t been seen in decades. You gotta wonder how many they have just sitting there.
My favorite is the Queen Mary fringe. Beatrice wore it so well.
The British have the best tiara collection. Not because every tiara is a stunner, but because it’s so large and diverse. You have tiaras with so many different backstories, I love it.

Princess Anne was spotted wearing this pearl tiara at a state dinner in 2009. Hasn’t been seen since.
How have I never noticed that Meghan and Zara wore the same tiara for their weddings?
