Recently Janet posted about a tiara which was very similar to the Curzon Boucheron tiara.

When I was looking through files yesterday to find examples of loop/circle tiaras, I found I had the image below. It shows Marcia, Countess of Yarborough and Baroness Conyers, the latter being a title she held in her own right.

I think the image is dated 1904.


To my eye the tiara looks identical to the one worn by Mary, Lady Curzon,



It seems unlikely that the ladies shared this tiara, as it was later worn by the next Countess of Yarborough for the 1937 coronation, although it appears to have been mounted on a base making it more imposing.

1937


I wonder how many tiaras based on this pattern were made? Janet's thread included a photo of one which is similar.
