Diamond Tiara | Londonderry Jewels
The tiara worn by Theresa Marchioness of Londonderry has been dramatically
altered since it was first made. At one time, each individual element
was set with a pearl, but these have been replaced by diamonds and its
original gallery of pear-shaped pearls has also been removed. The diamond
parure was made by Garrard in 1854 from stones removed from Marchioness
Emily´s jewels and the second Marquess' Garter insignia.
The British novelist E.F. Benson also recalled the strong-minded Marchioness
with something akin to admiration: "She went for life hammer
and tongs?. Like a highwayman in a tiara, trampling on her enemies as
if they had been a bed of nettles."
When she died, the British military journalist, Charles Repington, wrote:
"she was one of the most striking and dominating feminine personalities
of our time, terrifying to some, but endeared to many friends by her
notable and excellent qualities."
