Thank you Blueice for those beautiful pics.
Here's a bigger pic of Lalla Salma at her wedding. I love the tiara and the matching earrings. So timeless and regal. Last edited by Humera; 01-26-2005 at 05:18 PM. |

Salma' tiara is a Greek Key diamond, called also Meander' tiara. The word "meander" derives from the River Maiandros, which inspired the ancient Greek key pattern, so the lines/square spiral wanders like the Maiandros River. There is a similar tiara in this site http://alexandris.de/antique.htm It says: A CHAUMET DIAMOND TIARA, ca.1910 , set in platinum, Designed in the Greek key pattern , very characteristic of this period, in its original CHAUMET case. So apart from it is beautiful tiara, I would expect Greeks (or Europeans) to wear a Greek key tiara not arab princess/queen. Here some ladies who wore Romanian Greek Key Tiara, http://royal-jewels2.tripod.com/romania/key.html http://royal-jewels1.tripod.com/et/meander.html http://groups.msn.com/RoyaltyDanjel3/dengreekkeyw.msnw |

Thanx for the info abir:)
I knew Lalla Salma's tiara was a Greek Key Tiara, which is why I think it looks so regal. Its too bad we dont get to see Moroccan princesses wear their tiaras more often. The only time I've seen them wearing tiaras is at their weddings. They dont wear them at state visits either. |

Yes, it's pity to have beautiful tiara and not to wear it that often. Maybe they don't because the princesses usually wear big earrings, necklace and a long gold belt ... so if they add to that a tiara it will be too much I guess :) |
