What did Nizam of Hyderabad gift as lavish wedding gift to Queen Elizabeth II?
Tuesday, 3 December 2024 In 1947, Princess Elizabeth received a stunning tiara and necklace from the Nizam of Hyderabad, crafted by Cartier and now valued at $88 million. The tiara, with detachable brooches, and the necklace adorned with diamonds, have become iconic royal pieces, currently worn by Queen Camilla following Queen Elizabeth II's passing.
Renowned architect Lord Foster will design a national memorial to Queen Elizabeth II, transforming St James’s Park with gardens and a bridge inspired by her wedding tiara. The project includes Commonwealth and UK gardens, two ceremonial gates, and a lightweight bridge symbolising unity with Prince Philip. Lord Foster says it’s a “blessing” to help tell Her Majesty’s story in a space for all. Report by Covellm.
