Creation: This tiara started with Queen Elisabeth of the Hellenes using one of Queen Olga's emeralds to create a bandeau. Next she had two more emeralds added and finally she had five of the emeralds placed in a kokoshnik style tiara with diamond "E"s surrounding the emeralds. Queen Frederika had the top diamond border removed and had the tiara adapted so that it could be worn as a necklace
Materials: diamonds and five cabochon emeralds
