Don't forget Sissi, she also had star-ornaments and if my memory is working OK, also a star-tiara.

I found this picture of Queen Alexandra wearing a star tiara taken 1889. Of some reason I couldn't find the tiara either at Danjel's site or the Royal Jewels of the World. The picture isn't very clear but I'm sure the tiara has stars. Anybody knows this piece?

And be quick because it is a Corbis pic.

I'm pretty sure that the tiara is the queen's wedding present from the King, except that she added stars to it instead of the scroll ornaments. What about the necklace? Anyone know anything about it??

Alexandra's tiara

Here's Alexandra's tiara. In the Corbis picture I think she added stars to it

Here's one that I just found on the Royal Jewels Board. Grand Duchess Marie, DUch. of Endinburgh:

I was looking at Danjel's Royal Splendour site, when I realized I'd seen the Baden Star tiara before (At least I'm fairly sure I have!). It's the same one worn by Queen Victoria's daughter, Beatrice!

compare these two pictures.

This tiara has belonged to Princess Margaretha (née Princess of Sweden). Princess Margaretha was Countess Ruth's mother-in-law.

The tiara is made of gold, turquoises and diamonds and is shaped like 3 big stars with diamonds and turquoises
The tiara was a wedding gift to Queen Louise (married to King Christian IX).

that's a very cool one :)

Does anyone know who owns the Wuttenberg Ruby Star tiara now? Is it still in that families possession, or was it broken up and/or sold?

The Star tiara worn by Princess Benedikte of Denmark was originally a swedish tiara. It was inherited by Queen Ingrid (born a princess of Sweden) and brought to Denmark on her marriage. I don't know who owned the tiara first though.

Ursala's site has a gorgeous ruby star tiara. I can't provide a picture, but here's the link

If anyone has any other photos of this set, and could post them, I'd be very grateful :)

I think it was first worn by Queen Sophie, Fireweaver.

Thanks for the info! I love the picture of Alexandra of SWB wearing it, it shows the stars and design so very clearly. It's a gorgeous piece.

Interesting topic! I must say though that the Portugese Star Tiara is a monstrosity! Talk about too much!

It's not the same.....well at least I don't think so, but duchess Sophie von Württemberg DID wear a star tiara for her wedding. Not at the actual wedding but at the pre-wedding ball..
