Diadem mit Diamanten Bourbonen-Lilie ehemald Brosche der Fürstin Alexandra| Prinzessin Beatrix, Prinzessin Cecile und Fürstin Saskia von Hohenlohe Langenburg | Königlicher Schmuck Geschichte der Juwelen
Prinzessin Beatrix zu Hohenlohe-Langenburg, oben abgebildet, mit einem Diadem von Juwelier Koch Frankfurt, als Mittelpunkt die historische Diamant Brosche in Form einer Bourbonenlilie, ihrer Grossmutter Alexandra Fürstin zu Hohenlohe-Langenburg. Die diese grosse Lilien Brosche 1895 erstmals trug, daher wohl ein bedeutendes Verlobungsgeschenk. Sie vererbte die Brosche und den grösten Teil ihres Schmucks, ihrem Sohn Fürst Gottfried und seine Frau Fürstin Margarita, trug die wertvollen Stücke zur Krönung von Königin Elizabeth II, der Hochzeit von Königin Anne-Marie von Griechenland und der Hochzeit von Königin Sofia von Spanien. Der Hofjuwelier fertigte einen Rahmen für die vorhandene Brosche somit enstand ein Reif, in flachen Bögen erheben sich kleine Spitzen
mit Diamanten und Perlen, sowie Blattwerk, alles besetzt mit
Diamanten. Zwei kleinere Bourbonen Lilien wurden mit Abstand als weitere Höhepunkte für die Tiara verwendet. Die Bögen und der Friess sind mit Diamanten im Verlauf besetzt. Evtl wurde die Bourbonenlilie leicht abgeändert die seitlichen Schwünge zeigen nun nach unten,sie wurden wohl seitenverkehrt ausgetauscht. in der Brosche waren sie nach oben. Das Foto mit der Prinzessin Beatrix zu Hohenlohe Langengburg ist in den späten 1960ern entstanden, evtl anlässlich einer Hochzeit der Familie.
Zuletzt wurde die Tiara von der Braut des damaligen Erbprinzen getragen, der jetzigen Fürstin Saskia zu Hohenlohe Langenburg im Jahr 2003.

Diadem Diamond Fleur de Lys | Tiara with Pearls Royal Jewels|Wedding Tiara of Cecilie Princess of Hohenlohe-Langenburg | Saskia Fürstin of Hohenlohe LangenburgPrincess Beatrix zu Hohenlohe-Langenburg, pictured above, with a diadem by jeweller Koch Frankfurt, the historical diamond brooch in the shape of a Bourbon lily, her grandmother Alexandra Fürstin zu Hohenlohe-Langenburg, as the centre. One spark was enough to destroy one of the most beautiful buildings in southern Germany, a fire on 24 January 1963 destroyed Langenburg Castle in Hohenlohe. After the fire in the castle*, the valuable ruby jewellery of Grand Duchess Marie Alexandrovna was sold to finance and rebuild the castle. However, there was a need for a small diadem and the jeweller Koch in Frankfurt was commissioned with it in 1968. The court jeweller made a frame for the existing brooch and, as a supplement, drop beads were placed upright on an arch to the left and right of the centre, which was connected to the other elements by swags in diamonds. Two smaller Bourbon lilies were used as further highlights for the tiara. The arches and the frieze are decorated with diamonds in the course. Possibly the Bourbon lily was slightly modified, the lateral swings now point downwards, in the brooch they were upwards. The photo with Princess Beatrix zu Hohenlohe Langengburg was taken in the late 1960s, possibly on the occasion of a family wedding. Princess Cecilie zu Hohenlohe-Langenburg married in 1998 and wore these Bourbon lilies Tiara as The tiara was last worn by the bride of the then Hereditary Prince, now Princess Saskia zu Hohenlohe Langenburg, in 2003.
*No fire in the last 100 years has burned itself deeper into the collective memory of the people of Hohenlohe: 50 years ago, in the night of 24 January 1963, the Langenburg Castle sank into a sea of flames. No memorial, no plaque reminds of the dog who may have saved the lives of many people this winter night: The chamber maid Berta Münz wakes up around 1 o'clock in her parlour in the east wing of the castle from the barking of the four-legged friend, she lights up - and barely sees her hand in front of her eyes, smoking and smoking. A flying spark in a chimney turns into a big fire. A bitter joke on the stairs: a new central heating system has already been installed, but has not yet been approved by the TÜV. The princely family is woken up and the director Karl Schneider, also torn from his sleep, triggers an operation with his calls that Hohenlohe has never experienced before: From all directions, fire brigades fight their way through metre-high snowdrifts and over glassy roads to Langenburg. The professional fire brigade in Stuttgart is also alerted in case of emergency: The hohenloischen fire-fighting troops do not become alone no more master of the raging fire. Dramatic scenes take place: In the coldest winter in 80 years, the firefighters search for the few hydrants at 18 degrees below zero that have not already been frozen in the freezing cold. Two hose lines down to Jagst also freeze after a short time. With chainsaws and axes, the Jagst is worked on in the ice tank, until finally at some points extinguishing water can be pumped out and transported high into the castle in the belly of the tank extinguishing vehicles. Over nine hours, around 275 firefighters with 28 vehicles, dozens of policemen and many helpers try to save the architectural jewel from total destruction. The deployment of the firefighters, who hold their jet pipes in the fire under threateningly swaying chimneys, penetrate over ice-smooth staircases into winding rooms and hold their positions next to collapsing walls and beams, ultimately shows success: the east and north wings as well as three towers have become a robbery of the flames for around 40 per cent of the princely residence on around 1800 square metres. The south and west wings, on the other hand, survived the conflagration almost unscathed. Miraculously, only three people were injured by the fire when the Prince's hunting ammunition exploded on the third floor of the east wing. The damage is estimated by the insurance companies at around three million euros - in this calculation, of course, invaluable testimonies from the history of the House of Hohenlohe, which are lost forever, are missing. The Langenburg Princely House is financing the reconstruction completed in 1966 with the sale of the Weikersheim Castle and jewels. With the resurrected castle, the Princely House proves that the Hohenlohe coat of arms saying "Ex flammis orior" ("I arise from flames") is not an empty word.
