Sarah Ferguson?s ?660,000 jewellery collection - Prince Andrew?s exes royal gems revealed | Style | Life & Style | Express.co.uk

QuoteThe York Diamond Tiara, given to Sarah Ferguson by the Queen, is one of the few pieces given as a gift and not on loan from Her Majesty.

While Princess Diana and Camilla Parker Bowles wore their family tiaras when the married, Sarah?s was made especially for her courtesy of the Queen.

Grant said: ?This picture-perfect classic is made entirely out of diamonds set in platinum with floral scrollwork and a large diamond of around 5 carats sitting on top.

?The value of such a piece is not easy to calculate without knowing details about the diamond sizes, qualities, and also the weight of the platinum.

?That being said, with the value of a top quality 5 carat stone like this tiara topper combined with the platinum and other diamonds, the value of this tiara would easily be more than $300,000 USD today. I am certain that whatever the Queen paid for this beautiful piece in 1986 is far less than the value today because of how significantly the value of diamonds and platinum have appreciated over the years, and continue to do so.?
