Princess Royal's Diamond Scroll Tiara

A versatile and highly important diamond tiara, composed of six graduated diamond clusters each intersected by diamond collet and riband scrolls forming heart-shaped centres enclosed in a diamond collet and riband frame forming a small bow above five of the clusters. The six clusters are all detachable for alternative use. The provenance is not known, but it looks like a Russian item, very solid in workmanship and with fine diamonds. It could have been bought from one of the Russian imperial family members. The tiara was offered at the 1970 auction of the Princess Royal’s jewels and sold for £9,500.

Emerald and Diamond Brooch of the Ladies of North Wales | Royal Wedding Present Queen Alexandra| Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother on the Investiture of Prince of Wales ady Williams Wynn organized a subscription for local women to donate for a gift. Lady Williams Winn’s father spent many years as England’s representative at the Royal Court in Denmark and she was described as being on intimate terms with the Danish Court.
The money raised was used to create three items of jewelry: this brooch, a pair of diamond and emerald earrings, and the smaller Prince of Wales Brooch  The jewels were made by Garrard and all set in Welsh gold from Merionethshire.
This brooch, called The Leek Jewel in press articles from the time, is described as, “there are 15 large brilliants in the sides and upper part of the oval; these represent the 15 tribes of Wales. The bottom represents a ribbon with green edges, formed of emeralds, on which is the motto, “I’n Tywysoges No,” i.e., “To our own Princess.” The letters of these words are formed of small diamonds. The leek itself, in the center, is of emerald. The drop, at the bottom, is also an emerald. This is a very elegant ornament, and can be worn either as a brooch or a locket.”
It was written that the present was graciously received by Queen Alexandra when it was presented at to her at Marlborough House and she expressed great admiration for its design.
