CAMILLA
DID DON A TIARA FOR THE FIRST TIME THIS MONTH
(BUT NOT IN THE US)
Here’s the low down on the
glittery headpiece: The tiara was loaned to
Camilla by Queen Elizabeth II, who is thought
never to have worn it. The ring of brilliant-cut
diamonds mounted in gold and set in platinum
was created by Garrads in 1911, and previously
worn by Queen Mary -- the present queen's
grandmother. She wore it in Delhi, India in
1911 to mark the start of her husband King
George V's reign as king of England and emperor
of India. |
