Princess Bow Earrings

These earrings are based on the design from the Cambridge Lovers Knot Tiara. Queen Mary had a tiara made which became known as the Cambridge Lover's Knot Tiara , but is perhaps best known as one of the tiaras worn by Diana, Princess of Wales, during her marriage. Mary had this beautiful tiara made in 1914 as a copy of the tiara given to her grandmother, Princess Augusta of Hesse, just before her marriage to the first Duke of Cambridge in 1818. In its original condition, it had pearl "spikes" at the top level, which Mary had removed around 1935. It was given to Princess Elizabeth as a wedding gift when she married Prince Phillip in 1947, and she in turn gave it to Princess Diana as a wedding present on the occasion of her marriage to Prince Charles in 1981.

These gold plated earrings are embellished with bohemian crystals and a drop pearl.
