Queen Mary’s Diamond Bandeau - Was designed and created in 1932 for HM Queen Mary. It was designed, per Queen Mary's request, to accommodate a detachable brooch which had been gifted to her for her 1893 wedding by the County of Lincoln. The Bandeau features 11 intricate glittering sections, pierced with interlaced ovals and pave set with large and small brilliant diamonds. Queen Mary bequeathed by Queen Mary to Queen Elizabeth II on her death in 1953. The piece remained unseen until it was loaned to Meghan Markle for her wedding.

It is a beautiful tiara, but I doubt we will see it worn again any time soon.

Yeah, that beautiful bandeau was pretty much jinxed by Meghan.
