Saxe-Coburg and Gotha Turquoise Tiara

Princess Stephanie of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha will marry Jan Stahl in a religious at the St. Moritz Kirche in Coburg later today, and in honour of the occasion, we are taking a look at the Saxe-Coburg and Gotha Turquoise Tiara-

First worn by Princess Victoria Adelaide of Schleswig-Holstein around the time she married Prince Charles Edward, Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha and Duke of Albany, a grandson of Queen Victoria, the parure includes a pendant necklace and elaborate pendant earrings. The provenance of the Parure is unknown, but it was probably a wedding gift from her groom or parents, and was notably worn by Duchess Victoria Adelaide at the Wedding Ball of her daughter, Princess Sibylla, and Prince Gustav Adolf of Sweden in 1932

The Turquoise Tiara was not pictured after the late 1930s until the American-born Hereditary Princess Kelly wore the pieces of the parure at Royal Events in recent years, including the Weddings of Crown Princess Victoria and Princess Madeline of Sweden, and the Prince of Prussia, as well as King Carl XVI Gustav’s 70th Birthday Dinner and the Wedding Ball of Prince Ludwig and Princess Sophie of Bavaria at Schloss Schleißheim in 2023. It is seemingly the only Tiara now with the family, though they also have a Diamond Necklace, and we hope to see it on Princess Stephanie later today!

  1. Oh, I do hope she wears it! Hereditary Princess Kelly didn’t wear it at her wedding, so I’m hoping Princess Stephanie does! It’s one of my favorite turquoise tiaras. The color is fabulous, it has plenty of diamond sparkle, and the coronet style is becoming to everyone. 🙂

  2. It’s so interesting to see this tiara worn according to the style of the times. It started out on top of the head, drifted onto the eyebrows, and now is back up where it started! It’s a lovely parure, and I would love to see it worn with a colour other than blue.

  3. I absolutely LOVE 💕💕 this tiara!!! Turquoise tiaras are just beautiful, and this is one of the best!!
