THE BRUNSWICK TIARA
c 1913 or might be earlier.
The Brunswick Tiara belongs today to the Hanover family, but it didn't start its life in Germany. It supposedly started out in the same place several other storied tiaras did: in Empress Joséphine's jewel collection. Joséphine, the first wife of Napoleon I, wore this scrolling diadem with three particularly large diamonds in the centre and a laurel wreath top. However this is not easy to prove so some believe it true, others take this story with a pinch of salt. But like many of those other jewels, it ultimately left France. It turned up for sale in Germany at just the time that Prince Ernst August of Hanover was preparing to marry Princess Victoria Louise of Prussia (1892-1980), the daughter of German Emperor Wilhelm II.
Ernst August would soon become the reigning Duke of Brunswick, and the tiara was purchased as a gift for Ernst August and his bride from the people of Brunswick for their wedding in 1913. Not everyone agreed with the gift selection but it was bought and fixed up by Brunswick's court jeweller (it was missing a couple of diamonds) and the bridal couple were pleased with the gift. I suppose both the tiara and the event it marked could be seen as symbols of the end of an era to a certain extent; their wedding was the last great royal gathering from around Europe before World War I set in and royal life began to change drastically, and just five years later, Ernst August would have to abdicate his position as reigning duke, as did other German title holders.
The significance of the title went, but the tiara stayed with the family. Victoria Louise wore it throughout her life, but after she stopped using the tiara (she passed away in 1980), the tiara disappeared from the public eye. It made a surprising and triumphant return in 2004 on the head of the Princess of Hanover, better known as Caroline of Monaco, at the wedding of Denmark's Crown Prince Frederik and Mary Donaldson. The tiara apparently passed to Caroline's husband, also Prince Ernst August of Hanover, who is Victoria Louise's grandson, but it was not worn by his first wife.

As always for all of you tiara collectors out there, here are details of where to buy this copy. It is from China, as always, with our friends at aliexpress. The cost in British Sterling was £59.00 during one of their sales in September 2020. It is cubic zirconia and a good copy at about the right height. The main 3 diamonds in the centre are en tremblant, a French term – meaning “to tremble”.
