Antiques: Terrific Tiaras
THE POST DIAMOND TIARAThe Post Diamond Tiara was made in the mid 19th century (circa 1840). The flower petals and leaves are pavé set with 1,198 old mine and rose-cut diamonds. The tiara was made of silver and gold as commonly seen in early Victorian jewelry. It was fashioned “en tremblant;” the flowers were mounted on trembler springs so that every movement would enhance the brilliance and sparkle of the diamonds.
