Late Victorian American Scroll diamond tiara

EDITOR'S REVIEW

From the late Victorian period, this dainty diamond tiara from Bentley & Skinner is perfect for brides who want a smaller head ornament. Nine diamond-set fleurs de lys, or lilies, circle the yellow gold frame. The three central flowers are topped with old brilliant-cut diamonds. Created prior to the adoption of platinum, 15 carats of diamonds are set in silver, as was customary in this period, to create a white metal mount for this one-of-a-kind tiara, which was made in America.
