Ok, I’m going to try my best to identify the oldest tiara still in use by each of the current European royal families but some of these are just my best guess because we don’t always know when a tiara was created.  Here we go…

Belgium - circa 1925 - Queen Elisabeth of Belgium’s Diamond Bandeau Tiara

Denmark - circa 1804 - Queen Désirée of Sweden’s Ruby Parure Tiara (though the original set of hair ornaments weren’t turned into a tiara until much later)

Liechtenstein - circa 1870 - Kinsky Honeysuckle Tiara

Luxembourg - early 1800s - Luxembourg Empire Tiara

Monaco - 1949 - Princess Charlotte’s Pearl Drop Tiara

Netherlands - 1881 - Queen Emma of the Netherlands’s Sapphire Parure Tiara

Norway - early 1800s - Duchess of Leuchtenberg’s Emerald Parure Tiara

Spain - 1867 - Infanta Isabella of Spain’s Shell Tiara

Sweden - circa 1806 - Duchess of Leuchtenberg’s Sapphire Parure Tiara

United Kingdom - 1820 - King George IV of the United Kingdom’s Diamond Diadem
