A Historic Jewel Lives Again

The wedding of Géza and Elena therefore represents much more than the reappearance of an antique diamond tiara.

In 2025 the jewel could be admired as part of the history of the Habsburg family at Schloss Halbturn.

In 2026 it was once again placed on the head of a bride marrying one of Archduchess Isabella’s direct descendants.

After generations of dynastic history, Archduchess Isabella’s Diamond Fringe Tiara is once again a living family jewel.:

A magnificent historic Habsburg tiara has returned to the public eye at a family wedding.

On 29 August 2026, Count Géza von Königsegg Aulendorf married Countess Elena von Arco Zinneberg at Sherborne Abbey in Dorset.

For her wedding, Elena wore an extraordinary family jewel: the great Diamond Fringe Tiara of Archduchess Isabella of Austria Teschen, née Princess Isabella of Croÿ.

The jewel is particularly significant for the groom's family. Archduchess Isabella was Géza's great great grandmother.

One of the most impressive jewels associated with Archduchess Isabella of Austria Teschen, née Princess Isabella of Croÿ (1856–1931), is her magnificent Diamond Fringe Tiara, a spectacular jewel composed of graduated diamond set rays rising to a dramatic central point.

Born Princess Isabella Hedwig Franziska Natalie of Croÿ on 27 February 1856, Isabella was the daughter of Rudolf, Duke of Croÿ, and Princess Natalie of Ligne. On 8 October 1878 she married Archduke Friedrich of Austria, Duke of Teschen (1856–1936). The couple had eight daughters and one son.

As the wife of one of the wealthiest members of the Habsburg dynasty, Isabella possessed an exceptional collection of jewellery. Historic photographs show her wearing the great Diamond Fringe Tiara together with diamond rivières, enormous pear shaped pearl pendants and other important jewels from the Teschen collection.
The Diamond Fringe Tiara

The tiara is designed as a graduated series of narrow diamond set elements radiating upwards from a continuous diamond base. The tallest elements dominate the centre and decrease progressively towards either side, producing the characteristic silhouette of a fringe tiara or kokoshnik.

Rather than consisting simply of individual diamond spikes, the principal graduated elements have pointed, elongated outlines and are densely set with diamonds. Between them are narrower diamond set rays, creating the exceptionally rich and almost continuous diamond surface visible in Isabella's portraits.

The jewel belongs to the great tradition of nineteenth century diamond court tiaras created to produce maximum brilliance under artificial evening light.

Historic photographs provide important evidence for its appearance in the collection of Archduchess Isabella.
