About this listen

Hi, Hello, and Howdy!


Thank you all so much for joining me for week three of my adventure into the world of tiaras! This week we dive into "The Dutch Diamond Bandeau!" Originally created from a diamond riviere necklace given to Queen Emma on her wedding day to the King of the Netherlands! There is much conjecture about who originally created this tiara and who debuted it first! Join us as we explore the tiara’s journey through history, its connections to the royal family of the Netherlands, and the iconic moments it’s been part of!
