Lady Glenconner’s Diamond Star Tiara/Coronet/Brooch
Estimate: £50,000 – £80,000
The Collection of Lady Anne Glenconner
Lady Glenconner’s Diamond Star Tiara/Coronet/Brooch Combination, circa 1880 and later, comprising eight stars when worn as a coronet and seven stars when worn as a tiara, graduating in size towards the centre, each set throughout with old brilliant, old single, rose and cushion-cut diamonds, mounted in silver and gold, seven detachable brooch fittings, two boxes for tiara and coronet frames, stars and brooch fittings both by Collingwood, 46 Conduit Street, London, W1.
Learning how to manage a tiara was rather fun. Colin bought me a wonderful one, designed with twelve large diamond stars that could also be worn separately as brooches. Once we had a ball and I wore the stars down my bodice like jewelled buttons. May wore the tiara on her wedding day to Anton and it looked simply stunning on her.”
