          Queen Maria Vittoria of Spain's Diamond and Pearl Tiara.
        ~ This tiara is composed of graduated volute motifs set with cushion-cut, circular and single diamonds, framing 11 natural pear-shaped pearls, whose central pearl is supported by a pink diamond setting, all resting on a base. detachable consisting of diamond-set cluster motifs, and in addition the top of the tiara can also be worn separately as a necklace.Made for Princess Maria Vittoria dal Pozzo della Cisterna, daughter of Prince Carlo Emanuele dal Pozzo della Cisterna and Countess Louise of Merode, this jewel was purchased by Maria Vittoria shortly after her wedding in 1867 with Prince Amedeo of Savoy, I Duke of Aosta and later King Amedeo I of Spain.Unfortunately, Maria Vittoria died of tuberculosis in 1876 at the age of 29 and the tiara disappeared from circulation, so much so that there were many hypotheses about the fate of the piece, some in fact claimed that it had been inherited from the second-born son, Prince Vittorio Emanuele of Savoy-Aosta. , The Counts of Turin, others thought it had been inherited by the youngest son, Prince Luigi Amedeo of Savoy-Aosta, I Duca degli Abruzzi.What exactly happened to the tiara remains unclear, but it is known that, since Vittorio Emanuele and Luigi Amedeo died without descendants, King Umberto II of Italy bought it so that the tiara would not abandon the family collection. Later this jewel was donated to Princess Maria Gabriella of Savoy, who, however, in 2021 put it up for auction at Sotheby's, who after having estimated it between $ 1,000,000 and $ 1,500,000, selling it for approximately $ 1,600,000 to an unknown buyer. ~

Elisabeth Alexandra Gabriella Annunciata Charlotte Teresa
As the daughter of a Habsburg, Elisabeth was given the name Teresa. The most famous of which was Empress Maria Theresa, the last of the House of Habsburg and the real power of the Holy Roman Empire under her husband Francis I. 
The given name of Maria Theresa had been in the Habsburg family since the 17th century. Maria Theresa of Spain was the wife of King Louis XIV and through him, gave their grandson a claim to the Spanish throne bringing the Bourbons to Spain. Since then, almost every Maria Theresa has left their mark in history.
Empress Maria Theresa’s granddaughter Maria Theresa of Naples and Sicily married her double first cousin giving birth to almost a dozen children. Her children were an Emperor of Austria, Empress of the French, Empress of Brazil & Queen of Portugal and a Crown Princess of Saxony.
Mother and daughter, Maria Theresa of Austria-Este and Maria Theresa of Savoy married Italian Bourbons. The mother was Queen of Sardinia and the other was Duchess of Parma. It is through Felix, Prince Consort of Luxembourg and Empress Zita of Austria that Maria’s Theresa descendants are still in reigning monarchies. 
Another Maria Theresa of Savoy was the grandmother of the last Duchess of Parma, Louise Marie Therese. Her husband, Louis XIX of France became king over two decades after her death meaning Maria Theresa never got the title Queen of France. 
The most recent Maria Theresa to become Queen was Maria Theresa of Austria, Queen of the Two Sicilies. Like Habsburgs and Bourbons before her, Maria Theresa married her children into the Bourbon-Parma family and Austria Imperial Family. 
Maria Theresa, Grand Duchess of Luxembourg was the first of the Americas. As a Cuban, Maria Theresa was the beginning of marriages to commoners in European royalty. As a great-aunt of Lady Elisabeth, Maria Theresa greatly influenced Elisabeth’s life and that of her sister, Alice. The two girls eventually converted to Catholicism.

The wedding of King Constantine II of the Hellenes, and Princess Anne-Marie of Denmark took place on Friday, 18 September 1964 at the Metropolitan Cathedral of Athens, two weeks after Anne-Marie's 18th birthday.Constantine II, King of the Hellenes was the only son of King Paul of the Hellenes and Princess Friederike of Hanover, while Princess Anne-Marie was the youngest daughter of King Frederick IX of Denmark and Princess Ingrid of Sweden. It was the first, and to date only, wedding of a Greek monarch whilst they sat on the throne to be held in Greece
Princess Anne-Marie wore a relatively unadorned gown by Danish designer, Jørgen Bender. Her Irish lace veil, worn by her maternal grandmother, Princess Margaret of Connaught at her own wedding in 1905, was anchored by a Cartier diamond tiara given to Princess Margaret by the Khedive of Egypt. The veil had also been worn by her mother, Queen Ingrid, in 1935. The veil and tiara together have been worn by all of Ingrid's female descendants.
King Constantine II wore the ceremonial uniform of field marshal of the Hellenic Army. He wore the riband and star of the Order of the Redeemer as well as all his other medals and decorations.

Ο γάμος του Βασιλιά Κωνσταντίνου Β’των Ελλήνων και της Πριγκίπισσας Αννα-Μαρίας της Δανίας πραγματοποιήθηκε την Παρασκευή 18 Σεπτεμβρίου 1964 στον Μητροπολιτικό Καθεδρικό Ναό της Αθήνας, δύο εβδομάδες μετά τα 18α γενέθλια της Άννα -Μαρίας
Ο Κωνσταντίνος Β’ Βασιλιάς των Ελλήνων μοναχογιός του βασιλιά Παύλου των Ελλήνων και της πριγκίπισσας Φρειδερίκης του Ανόβερου, ενώ η πριγκίπισσα Αννα Μαρία ήταν η μικρότερη κόρη του βασιλιά Φρειδερίκου ΘX της Δανίας και της πριγκίπισσας Iνγκριντ της Σουηδίας. Ηταν ο πρώτος, και μόνος μέχρι σήμερα, γάμος ενός Έλληνα μονάρχη ενώ κάθονταν στο θρόνο της Ελλάδας έγινε στην Ελλάδα .
Η πριγκίπισσα Aννα Μαρια φορούσε ένα στολισμένο νυφικο από τον Δανό σχεδιαστή, Jørgen Bender. Το ιρλανδικό δαντελένιο πέπλο της, που φορούσε η γιαγιά της μητέρας της, η πριγκίπισσα Margaret of Connaught στον δικό της γάμο το 1905, φορούσε την διαμαντένια τιάρα Cartier που δόθηκε στην πριγκίπισσα Margaret από τον Khedive της Αιγύπτου. Το πέπλο φορούσε επίσης η μητέρα της, βασίλισσα Iνγκριντ, το 1935. Το πέπλο και την τιάρα μαζί φορούσαν όλες οι γυναίκες απόγονοι της Ινγκριντ.
Ο βασιλιάς Κωνσταντίνος Β’ φορούσε την τελετουργική στολή του στρατάρχη του Ελληνικού Στρατού. Φορούσε την κορδέλα και το αστέρι του Τάγματος του Λυτρωτή καθώς και όλα τα άλλα μετάλλια και τα παράσημά του.
Στο γάμο παραβρέθηκαν 1200 καλεσμένοι από όλο τον κόσμο. Καθώς και η νύφη και ο γαμπρός ήταν απόγονοι της Βικτώριας του Ηνωμένου Βασιλείου και του Χριστιανού ΙΧ της Δανίας, είχαν στενή σχέση με όλους σχεδόν τους βασιλικούς οίκους της Ευρώπης, πολλοί από τους οποίους ήταν παρόντες.

María Luisa Gabriella of Savoy (1688 - 1714)
She was daughter of Victor Amadeus II, Duke of Savoy, and his wife Anne Marie d’Orléans, the youngest daughter of Philippe of France and Henrietta of England. Throughout her life, Maria Luisa remained close to her older sister Maria Adelaide who later married Louis, Duke of Burgundy, the eldest grandson of Louis XIV. In her youth, Maria Luisa was described as playful and fun loving and had received a good education. At the age of just thirteen, Maria Luisa married Philip V of Spain, to whom she was deeply devoted and who passionately loved her.The princesse des Ursins was a member of the household of the Queen. She would maintain great influence over Maria Luisa as her Camarera mayor de Palacio, chief of the household to the young queen, who was still a child.  
A weak and ineffectual King, Maria Luisa held great influence over her husband. She is described as remarkably mature for her age, politically savvy, articulate and hardworking, and she has been credited with giving the normally passive Philip V the energy he needed to participate in warfare. In 1702, Philip V was obliged to leave Spain to fight in Naples as part of the ongoing War of Spanish Succession. During her husband’s absence, Maria Luisa acted as Regent from Madrid. 
Tumblr media
She was praised as an effective ruler, having successfully implemented various changes in government and insisted upon all complaints being investigated and reports made direct to her. Her leadership encouraged the reorganization in the junta and, in doing this, inspiring people and their cities to make donations towards the war effort. During her tenure as regent, she presided daily at the committee of government, gave audiences to ambassadors, worked for hours with ministers, corresponded with Philip, read war dispatches to her people from a balcony, and worked with preventing Savoy from joining the enemy. She offered her jewels for the defense of the Andalusian coast.The patriotism she displayed and the care she showed toward the people made her popularity soar and the population adored her.
After her husband's return, Maria Luisa resumed her role as queen consort. In 1704, the Princesse des Ursins was exiled at the order of Louis XIV, devastating Maria Luisa. However, in 1705, the Princesse returned to Madrid, much to the joy of the young queen. During the peace negotiations in 1711 and 1712, Maria Luisa stubbornly resisted any dismemberment of the Spanish Empire. The Queen gave birth to four sons, two of whom would survive infancy. Maria Luisa was mother of two Kings of Spain, Louis I and Ferdinand VI. 
Weakened by childbirth, war, and tuberculosis, Maria Luisa failed despite the care of the best physician sent by Louis XIV from Paris. With a pious composure, she died on 14 February 1714 at the Royal Alcázar in Madrid, in her 25th year. Her husband, who had to be restrained from intercourse with her the day before she died, grieved deeply for her, but went hunting the day of her funeral. She was buried at San Lorenzo de El Escorial. In December, just months after Queen Maria Luisa’s death, her widower Philip V remarried, to Elisabeth Farnese, the only child and heiress of the Duke of Parma.
