The Dutch Aquamarine Parure Tiara was given to the future Queen Juliana in 1927 as a birthday present from her parents, Queen Wilhelmina and Prince Henry.
The tiara consists of pear-shaped briolette and square-cut Brazilian aquamarines and diamonds. It was made by van Kempen, Begeer and Vos Jewellers.
The tiara has been worn by most of the Dutch Queens and Princesses, including those who married into the family. It became part of the Jewel Foundation in 1960, and it cannot be sold.1
Pieces were added to the parure over time, including two necklaces, a pendant, a pair of earrings and a brooch.
