Jewellery expert, Maxwell Stone, commented: “Meghan’s tiara was no doubt the most valuable item she wore on her wedding day. It belonged to Queen Mary, who was married to King George V and is Queen Elizabeth’s grandmother.
“The centre stone featured in the tiara is actually a brooch, comprised of 10 diamonds and which Mary of Teck received as a wedding gift from the County of Lincoln in 1893. In 1932, the diamond and platinum bandeau tiara was specifically made to accommodate the brooch. A piece like this is likely to be worth over $2,485,000.”
Not only that, but during the evening reception Meghan showcased her ‘something blue’ – Princess Diana’s aquamarine ring worth an estimated $105,000 and even more sentimental value.
“Aquamarine is one of the most visually beautiful gemstones. With an enchanting pale blue colour, the ring was a perfect addition to Meghan’s wedding day outfit.
“Now having been passed down to Meghan Markle from Harry, it’s interesting to know that aquamarine’s are often associated with tranquility, serenity, clarity, and harmony. As the first of the spring birthstones, the sea blue crystal represents transformation and rebirth. It embodies youthful vitality, purity, loyalty, hope, and truth.”
