Did you know that the "Tiara" the Queen of England wears on the postage
stamps and the money was originally made for George IV, her great -
great - great uncle George IV, iirc?

Most "Tiaras" perch on the top of the head or are in someway an accent
or accouterment to a Ladies head, being generally representative of a
'courtesy title' not the Ladies by right but rather as a courtesy of her
husband. The Tiara the Queen wears on the postage stamps and money was
originally made to go over the court wigs the Georgians, specifically
George IV wore. And wraps around, fits over, the presant Queens entire
head.

The Austrians used to love to adorn their warriors in jewels, i have
several pictures of Austrian Archdukes wearing more jewelry than their
wives.

Fascinating information. Quite frankly with todays fad for piercing body
parts, I know men that adorn themselves with much more jewelry than women.
The jewels are not as fancy as you describe but it still does the trick...
so to speak.
