Betty Deuce in Diamonds


Her Majesty, Betty Deuce, whipped out the royal jewels for the Buckingham Palace State Dinner for South African President Jacob Zuma.

That tiara she's got on is the Kokoshnik Tiara, composed of 61 platinum bars filled with 488 diamonds; the largest are 3.25 carats. Just a little trinket. (click the pic for a better look)

Queen Alexandra, wife of King Edward VII, commissioned Garrard's to create the tiara in the style of a Russian peasant girl's headdress. Some peasant.
