Aquamarine Diamond Kokoshnik Tiara Diadem| Crown Princess Margaret of Sweden Princess of Connaught|Royal Jewel History Princess Madeleine
Above Princess Madeleine of Sweden, Duchess of Hälsingland and Gästriklandis pictured wearing the Aquamarine and diamond tiara of the swedish royal family.
Nothing was known yet about the history of the jeweler, but I found a match in the design sketches of the workshop Friedrich Kreuter & Co Hanau, Archive, made by their Designer Wilhelm Homburg on 8. / 9. May1908. The atelier of Friedrich Kreuter & Co Hanau, are working also for the Jeweller Koch, Frankfurt which was the source for the Egyptian Necklace with Safir, Ruby and Emerald Scarabäus
Wilhelm Homburg designed 5 sketches for a first view to set five smaller oval Aquamarines in a tiara with a fine diamond trelliswork.
The Aquamarine Kokoshnik was later made using five larger!! oval facetted Aquamarine in gradient and to fit the space it was need amaller but higher trellis ornament between the large gems, as in the first sketch, for the Crown Princess Margareta of Sweden, Princess of Connaught.
It's known Crown Princess Margareta Margaret Victoria Charlotte Augusta Norah; 15 January 1882 – 1 May 1920 was Crown Princess of Sweden as the first wife of the future King Gustaf VI Adolf. She was the elder daughter of Prince Arthur, Duke of Connaught, third son of Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom, and his wife Princess Louise Margaret of Prussia. Known in Sweden as Margareta.
The beautiful kokoshnik is worn by Crown Princess Margaret in public in the year 1911 on the occassion of the state visit of the italian royal family in Sweden.
After her death the Crown Princess Margaret left the tiara, to her first son Prince Carl Gustaf, he presented it as wedding gift to his bride Princess Sibilla of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha in the year 1932. Not at all Princess Sibilla wore it at first on her "Braut Soiree" the evening before her wedding in Coburg.
Princess Sibylla Duchess of Västerbotten gave her Aquamarine and Diamond Tiara to her eldest daughter Princess Margaretha, Mrs. Ambler in 1964, as a wedding present together with a matching pear of diamond and aquamarine earrings. Princess Margaretha, Mrs. Ambler lent it to her daughter Siybilly Ambler, when she married Baron Henning von Dincklage in 1998.
The Aquamarine and diamond diadem are still worn by Princess Margaretha,Mrs Ambler on royal occassions as well as from the Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden and from her Sister Princess Madeleine, see above.
Probably the kokoshnik is now also in the Bernadotte royal family foundation.. It has been used by Princess Christina. In 2015,
Princess Madeleine wore her aunt's tiara at the Nobel Banquet. The Crown Princess wore the tiara for the first time during the Nobel Banquet 2017.
Thank you to my dear friend Volker for your tireless help.
