Best & Worst Aquamarine Tiaras - Brazilian Aquamarine Tiara, Swedish Kokoshnik Tiara, Faberge Tiara

I like Queen Elizabeth's Brazilian aquamarine tiara, personally, but if I were to redesign it, the center stone would be set horizontal instead of vertical, and the apexes of each point on the tiara would be less extreme.

No current Royal wears aquamarines as stunningly as Princess Madeleine.

Good evening Brittnay, I'm with you on the Swedish Kokoshnik Tiara! It is a beautiful aquamarine tiara. Princess M's eyes pop when she wears those stones!!

Love the Swedish Kokoshnik, and it seems made for Princess Madeleine. Great video! Thank you!

No tiara could possibly be placed in best and worst. The stones are amazing and the craftsmanship would be world class.

I am shocked how much I like the Cyclops. Very simple but elegant.

I agree with you totally on the Queen's Aquamarine Tiara. It's absolutely horrible. Thank you for these posts on tiaras, I love them.

Agree about QE2’s tiara. For me the shape of the center stone standing upright looks strange. Love Princess Madeline’s tiara. Of course, you could put a bucket on her head and she would still be stunning. One of the prettiest royal ladies ever.

There are three others in the UK RF: The aquamarine pine cone tiara made for the Queen Mother and now with Princess Ann. The Duchess of Edinburgh tiara/necklace. And the Five aquamarine tiara that QEII wore originally but lent it to Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh

Her Late Majesty The Queen’s tiara is almost a crown. Perfectly fitting for the greatest monarch of modern times. I love it.

My birthstone!! The Faberge Tiara might be my favorite along with the Swedish Kokoshnik

I believe both Queen Alexandra and Queen Mary had great taste in jewelry. During Alexandra's time (in the days before WWI), she wore a boatload of jewels for her coronation. Queen Mary's reign was between the wars but was the last person to wear Cullinan I and II for important occasions. Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, Elizabeth II and Queen Camilla dialed down the amount of jewelry worn today, out of consideration for the times (WWII, austerity measures, cost-of-living crises), plus it somewhat fell out of fashion. Not a fan of the Brazilian Aquamarine Tiara, either. Not wild about the design, some stones are too big, but when it's a gift from the people of Brazil, what are you going to do?! 100% agree...The Kokoshnik Tiara, worn by Princess Madeline, looks best on her. It suits her pretty blue eyes. IMO Crown Princess Victoria seems to wear the Baden Fringe Tiara better.

Wow the faberge tiara is absolutely stunning! I never heard of it! Thank you Brittany! Another amazing video!

Thank you, I'm not a fan of QEII's aquamarine tiara either I find it far too heavy/bulky (I feel similarly about the Burmese ruby tiara which was designed by/for her), I prefer aquamarines in a lighter more graceful setting and I agree that the Faberge tiara is stunning.

I am not a fan of tiaras that have the large stones sticking up but I like the delicate base of the Faberge piece. Brittany-I read once about 12 women who went together to buy a diamond necklace and they each would have it for 1 month a year...I would definitely be up for a share in a tiara! ❤🥰

What about the tiara that Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh wears sometimes? That also has aquamarines in it, right? I personally favour the one Madeleine of Sweden is wearing❤

I think the issue with the QEII's Brazilian tiara is that the aquamarine in the center is too big and too tall, and below in the middle; it has another big aquamarine which opaques and makes the one above even larger than it already is... the gem should be an added color not the main feature of the tiara, but with that specific design it just overwhelms it. Thank you for another video Ms. Brittany. 💜💜

I agree, the British aquamarine tiara is u-gly. It's that huge central stone that bothers me.

They could improve the Cyclops 100% by adding two large diamonds on either side…And I agree. The Brazilian set is so huge and colorful it comes across as gaudy. Take out that giant stone and make that into a stunner broach and use the gems in the necklace to replace that center stone….or something! It’s too much.

Oh 150 percent agree with you about Madeleine and the kokoshnik tiara. Gorgeous! She wears it to perfection!
