Queen Silvia of Sweden's Magnificent "Eight-Figure" Diamond Tiara Is "In a Category of Its Own," Says Jewelry Expert

Queen Silvia looked regal as ever in a series of new portraits with King Carl XVI Gustaf released by the Swedish royal family on Wednesday, January 7, and her stunning diamond tiara holds a fascinating history. The images were released to celebrate a big year ahead for the royal couple, who will celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary in June and the king's 80th birthday in April.

In the photos, snapped by photographer Elisabeth Toll at Drottningholm Palace, 82-year-old Queen Silvia wears an elegant emerald green set she's worn on numerous occasions since 2018. The Georg et Arend design features a satin evening skirt and an off-the-shoulder lace top, and the queen paired the outfit with one of the royal collection's most show-stopping tiaras.
