Although Princess Diana was the first wife of Prince Charles, she was the Princess of Wales of England for 15 years and wore countless dazzling jewels, but she only wore two crowns, which was worse than her daughter-in-law Princess Kate, who was from a commoner background.
The most famous crown she has ever worn is probably "Pearl Tears", which has many pearl pendants that will shake as the wearer moves, and the unhappy marriage of Diana and Charles also adds more love and broken storylines to the crown.
Its first owner was the Queen's grandmother, Queen Mary, who was a jeweler and can definitely be a KOL now.
Her grandmother, Augusta, the Duchess of Cambridge, had a beautiful crown of pearls with arches made of diamond lover's knots and a lustrous and warm pearl pendant.

Queen Mary liked it, but her grandmother left the crown to her aunt, so in 1913, with part of her jewelry collection and diamonds removed from other crowns, she contacted Garner Jewelry to make a copy, replacing the upright pearl on top of the original crown with round diamonds.
She wore the crown herself not many times, and later gave it to her granddaughter Queen Elizabeth, who when she was young, preferred the crown of girls from Great Britain and Northern Ireland and was not too cold to the "lover knot".
After Diana and Charles married, the queen lent her the crown for a long time, and later rose with the status and fame of Princess Diana, becoming one of the most famous crowns of the British royal family.
But what was borrowed was just borrowed, and although she still had the right to wear it after the divorce, her surname was Windsor after all. It still lies in the Windsor jewelry box and is the crown worn most often by Princess Kate.
The second crown worn by Princess Diana was surnamed "Spencer", and the original owner was Diana's grandmother, Countess Cynthia Spencer. In the center of the crown is a heart-shaped pattern densely inlaid with white diamonds. Flanked by continuously scrolling scrolls, there are five-pointed stars and trumpet flowers embellished with diamonds, gold and silver.
It was this "family crown" that Princess Diana wore when she got married, and it is one of the most famous jewels she wore during her time as Princess of Wales.
After she divorced Prince Charles, the crown was taken back by her brother, although it was said that it was all her own jewelry, but she always felt that she helped her family make wedding clothes.
The Spencer family has another diamond crown, which is older and larger than the Heartscroll Crown. It was originally built for Charlotte, 5th Countess of Spencer. It is said that she wore the crown when she attended the (later) wedding of Edward VII and Alexandra in 1886.

The main elements of the crown are honeysuckle and echo, but the shape has undergone many "revisions" over the years, and when Charlotte wears it, it is a version of the 5 honeysuckle flowers above and the echo of the base.
Later, some adjustments were made, and when it reached Princess Diana's grandmother, Cynthia, it became three honeysuckle decorations in the middle, flanked by versions of the echo design.

After that, it may be that there was a Princess of Wales in the family, and the family's reputation gradually rose, and with more abundant financial resources, a lot of material was added to this crown.
The three honeysuckle flowers above the crown were added to nine, and below the largest honeysuckle in the middle, a five-petal honeysuckle was added first, and then two petals were added to become seven petals.
Princess Diana's stepmother, Renee, wore a modified version when she attended her wedding party in 1981.

Because the crown has a heavy family history, and many countesses have worn it, although Diana was already a princess of Wales at that time, there were many necklaces, earrings, and even jewelry sets, but the crown turned over and over and over just two, when her father was still alive because she did not have a good relationship with her stepmother, Diana asked her father several times to borrow a honeysuckle crown and was rejected, on the grounds that the crown was exclusive to the countess, and Miss Spencer could only borrow the heart scroll crown.
Fans felt sorry for Diana, and used the photo of her attending the opera "The Troubadour" performance in 1989 to give her a honeysuckle crown on her head, but the fan kindly did "bad things", in fact, the crown at this time has been upgraded, but P is still the most original version.

Diana's father John Spencer died in 1992, and the siblings teamed up to evict their stepmother from the Opsol mansion, and Diana's brother Charles Spencer became the new Earl of Spencer, but still refused to lend the crown to her sister, which became a regret in her heart.
But after Diana's death, the Spencer family took advantage of this heat to let the honeysuckle crown be displayed with Diana-related exhibitions, in fact, why not "suck blood"?
It is said that the water spilled by the married daughter, this sentence also applies to Princess Diana, but the maiden family uses a daughter to change a good future, but is unwilling to give her daughter enough support, which is more cold-blooded than the royal family.
