THE JAPANESE HONEYSUCKLE TIARA
C 1927
The tiara was worn by Setsuko, Princess Chichibu (1909-1995), who was married to Prince Chichibu, the second son of Emperor Taishō and Empress Teimei. She wore it for their wedding photo in 1928, and it may have been a gift to her when she married into the imperial family. Giving tiaras to incoming brides is still a tradition today, and much like those given now, it appears that there was originally a matching necklace and probably a full parure to go along with the diadem. Princess Chichibu was the aunt of the current emperor, Akihito, and the tiara has been worn by Empress Michiko in recent years.
Princess Chichibu's Honeysuckle Tiara stands apart from the other tiaras in the collection of the Empress because it is the only one not traditionally reserved for empresses, but it shares the same all white colour scheme as the rest of the imperial tiaras. This basic honeysuckle/palmette design has been a popular tiara motif over the years, in examples such as the Gloucester Honeysuckle Tiara and royal newcomer Princess Sofia's Emerald and Diamond Tiara. It's currently out of commission, so to speak, because Empress Michiko stopped wearing tiaras a few years ago (the weight is thought to be hard on her - It is believed she has back/neck issues).
The tiara features diamond honeysuckle or palmette motifs with large diamonds at the top and in the centre, separately by diamond loops filled by lines of diamonds in graduated sizes.
I am grateful to The Order Of Sartorial Splendour for this information. Do spend some time on this excellent site packed with information. Find out more about this delightfully delicate tiara on their site.

As always, the details for all of our Royal Tiara collecting friends around the world. Of course it came from aliexpress in China. The cost was £42.50 British Sterling, in one of their sales, you do the conversions, and was bought in September 2020. It is full cubic zirconia and the settings are open at the back to allow the tiara to take full advantage of the light. One of the video sequences shows a back view. It is a very accurate copy, apart from the height. Although I can not find details of the original sizing, I reckon that it is about ¾ of the height it should be, so not too far out. I have been asked how I light the videos to bring our the sparkle and fire of the tiaras. My secret, a 3,000,000 lumen light called, The Sun. The difficulty as always, trying to hide the camera shadows in close up.
