The Burmese Ruby Tiara |
Commissioned by the Queen from Garrard in 1973, this tiara includes two of the Queen's wedding presents: rubies from Burma, and diamonds taken from the
Nizam of Hyderabad Tiara. It was the only ruby tiara the Queen used until the
Oriental Circlet came into her possession following the Queen Mother's death.
