Antique and Vintage Tiaras for Sale on 1stDibs

For connoisseurs of fine jewelry, diamond tiaras are as alluring as they were when we were children — they evoke magic and fairy tales as much as they do luxury. While ornate antique tiaras are widely coveted, more modern examples attract many with their chic, minimalist appeal. Then there are devotees of jewelry who love both types, for different occasions.

“Tiaras are exceptionally romantic jewels,” says Sara Prentice, creative director of the British jewelry house Garrard. “Their regal connotations imbue them with a highly sought-after, prestigious beauty. A woman certainly holds herself differently when wearing one.”

In contrast to their regal history, most tiaras now “are bought by families for the wedding of a daughter and often kept as heirlooms, to be passed down to future brides,” says Claire Frost, of London’s Moira Fine Jewellery. Moreover, while traditionally, only married women were allowed to wear them — which partly explains their popularity among brides — these days anyone can.

Especially alluring are tiaras that can be transformed into multiple jewels, making them not merely exquisite hair ornaments but versatile and practical investments. An Edwardian tiara offered by Berganza, for instance, set with deep-red Burmese rubies encircled by 56 carats of white diamonds, can be converted into two elaborate necklaces and two pairs of earrings.

Similarly, Garrard’s 1893 Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara, which adorns Queen Elizabeth II on British banknotes, can be reconfigured as a necklace.

Find antique and vintage tiaras for sale on 1stDibs — they aren’t just for royalty anymore.

Questions About Antique Tiaras
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023
    The main difference between a tiara and a diadem is the specificity of the shape. A tiara is a semicircular headpiece that typically arches upward toward the middle, while a diadem is a semicircular headpiece of any shape. All tiaras are diadems, but not all diadems can be classified as tiaras. Shop a collection of tiaras from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023
    What a tiara symbolizes is largely a matter of interpretation. Historically, tiaras signified the departure from maidenhood into married life, while today, many people simply associate them with royalty. While traditionally, only married women were allowed to wear them — which partly explains their popularity among brides — these days anyone can. More and more jewelry lovers are donning gem-set headpieces for special occasions, from white-tie dinners to New Year’s Eve fetes. Find an assortment of tiaras on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023
    The difference between a tiara and a circlet is the design. A tiara is a headpiece that fits around half of the head and usually forms an arch shape. A circlet extends either all the way or most of the way around the head but often has the same shape in the front. On 1stDibs, shop a range of tiaras.
