FAIRY TIARA
Tiara, traditionally represented 'the crowning of love and the loss of innocence' according to Geoffrey Munn, author of Tiaras: A history of Splendor and it was often wore by nobles for the first time at a wedding and to important occasions thereafter. Its origin can also be traced back to the symbolic significance of imperial power and authority in ancient Greek. It has always been dazzled by monarchs and Royal families for centuries, stating a woman's prestigious social status.
Nowadays, tiara is no longer exclusive to the royal families. Interest has escalated among celebrities and they were adorned by diamond tiaras for formal functions or even on the red carpet.
Each tailor-made Tiara has to go through rigorous making process, starting from sketching out wearer's preferences and understanding her character, size-fitting, sourcing specific diamonds or gemstones, to finalising the intricate details with exquisite craftsmanship. The whole process takes at least half a year or even longer.
