This Pearl Crown was made in 1978 to commemorate the 85th Anniversary of the discovery of the method of producing cultured pearls by the late Kokichi Mikimoto.
The design is similar to the State crown of Queen Mary which was made for the consort of George V at his coronation in 1911.
The Crown is made of 18 carat gold studded with 872 lustrous MIKIMOTO Cultured Pearls.
