Maries nye diadem - Marie's new tiara.
Written by Henrik Salling.
Our Marie has been presented with a new personal and more unofficial tiara. The official tiara is the one she was presented with by QMII and which she wore at her wedding.
This new tiara, she can wear whenever she pleases.
The tiara was presented to the public at the recent Copenhagen Jewelry Fair, for which Marie is patron.
The tiara is designed by Anja Blinkenberg, from the company Flora Danica. Marie has contributed with several ideas to the design.
Vagn Ibsen, manager at Flora Danica says: "The three lilies symbolises, apart from the Princess also Prince Joachim and little Prince Henrik. But in order to make it up to date we have placed a little diamond in the lily of the Princess. A symbol for come January a little new prince or princess will join the family".
The large lily in the centre symbolise Marie, the two smaller ones her husband and son.
The tiara is not owned by Marie, it's still owned by Flora Danica, but whenever she wish to use it, it is at her disposal. - Presumably in the same manner as the midnight tiara used by Mary and which is designed by Charlotte Lynggaard.
The tiara itself is made from oxydised silver, while the stamens (you know, the stilk like thingies in the flowers) are made from white-gold, adorned with diamonds.
To the lover ring has been attached a row of faccetted amathysts.
There is a very detailed picture of the tiara in Billed Bladet and I hope it will surface in their site in a few days.
