这顶看着像一堵钻石墙的王冠全名:Queen Alexandra's Kokoshnik Tiara,亚历山德拉王后的俄式冠冕。
The crown is like a straight sword, and it has the majesty of a monarch

In 1888, British aristocratic women commissioned jeweler Garrard to make a Russian-style crown for Queen Alexandra, then Princess of Wales, as a wedding anniversary gift.
Queen Alexandra
This crown is inspired by the fan-shaped arches of Russian architecture, and I guess that the creation of this Russian-style crown has something to do with Alexandra's queen sister being the queen of Tsarist Russia at the time.
The crown has 61 crown tips, and such a dense design uses up 488 diamonds, which is literally a wall of diamonds.
Queen Alexandra received it very much, and then passed it on to her daughter-in-law, Queen Mary, even if it is a black and white photo can feel very sparkling, look at the queen grandmother, a body of jewelry.
Queen Mary
After her death, the crown passed directly to her granddaughter, Queen Elizabeth II, without going through the queen's mother, Queen Elizabeth

Queen Elizabeth was very fond and often wore it to attend various important meetings.

In 1965, Queen Elizabeth II wore Queen Alexandra's Russian crown at a state banquet in Ethiopia
The dress was a long avocado-colored silk embroidered dress encrusted with gemstones, which is also a color of the Ethiopian flag
皮草，王冠，礼服，简直绝了啊！
I think this crown is the main "flash in one"
Queen Elizabeth II of England, her appearance when she was young was indeed not as stunning as her sister Princess Margaret, but as time passed, the queen's temperament became more and more gentle and elegant, and the years were undefeated.
The British royal family, which later took care of the emotions of the common people, did not wear fur anymore, and did not wear much more large jewelry (except for the crown), which was much simpler.
In fact, who doesn't know that the royal family is rich, so it's okay for us civilians to feast their eyes, anyway, they don't wear it, and they don't give me money. Daibei~
