The dazzling diamond Cartier tiara most recently worn by queen Alia. This exquisite piece ascends akin to the towering cliffs of Dover, with a breathtaking display of jewels like a celestial halo.Evoking the style of a fringe tiara, though its design is decidedly abstract and thoroughly modern—leaning towards a more linear aesthetic rather than a floral one. Notably, the tiara captivates with its exceptionally tall base, demanding a hairstyle that accommodates the regal stature of this captivating accessory.

6- Princess Muna’s Fringe Tiara

In 1962, Princess Muna received a diamond necklace from King Hussein, which she altered into a tiara. During a state visit to Elysee Palace in Paris, France in November 1964, she wore the splendid fringe tiara during the meeting between King Hussein and Charles De Gaulle. The Tiara features a delicate diamond with slender fringes and spikes. However, it has been seldom seen, as Princess Muna has chosen to wear it only on two rare occasions since.

In 1971, the Princess lent the tiara to Princess Basma for the festivities marking the 2500th anniversary of the Persian Empire. Princess Aisha wore it as well on her wedding day to Zeid Juma.

The tiara is in the shape of a wreath of ivy, made entirely from emeralds set in black gold and has an elven charm about it. The tiara was inspired by an archival necklace from the 1890s.

2- Queen Noor’s Diamond Sunburst Tiara

In the 1980s, Queen Noor wore the Diamond Tiara for a plethora of official portraits, as well as two Banquets during the State Visit of Queen Elizabeth II and the Duke of Edinburgh to Jordan in 1984. She also wore the tiara on a State Visit to family friends King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofia of Spain the following year.

The Tiara, made up of abstract rays of diamond sunbursts, is a fitting tribute to the newly renamed Queen Noor al-Hussein ‘Light of Hussein’. While the rays originally graduated towards the center Queen Noor altered it with multiple graduated points added. We still don’t know who created it, but we believe it was commissioned to Cartier.

1- Queen Rania of Jordan’s Arabic Script Tiara

Arabic Script Tiara | The Royal Watcher

A stunning tiara crafted with precision, adorned with diamonds set in white gold, ascending to a central point. It showcases the Arabic script prayer “Allah is Great,” with pear-shaped diamonds gracing its peak and the center of its base. Created in 2005 by Yan Sicard for FRED and presented to Queen Rania by King Abdullah II, this regal piece is, in our biased opinion, the best.
