Make any number of excuses for this statement but those little girls are now adults and would have watched countless Miss World or Miss Universe pageants and visually associate silver tiaras with the crowning of beauty queens.
Silver by its nature sets an impressive background with all crystals, stones, gems, pearls and rhinestones. Beautiful creations come from tiara designers from all over the world with prices ranging from very affordable to super expensive. You are guaranteed to find silver tiaras within your budget.
Silver Tiaras
Especially when purchasing silver tiaras online, pay attention to the terminology used to ensure that you receive what you really want. Sterling silver is 'real' silver but the terms silver plated, silver coated and silver colored refer to an item that has been coated by electrolysis on the outer layer with silver but is another metal like copper underneath. The thickness of the silver coating and the care that is taken with the item will determine the item's life.
Silver plated tiaras allow the wearer to have an expensive look without the additional expense. If silver or silver plated tiaras have been purchased or are in storage long before they are going to be used for the event, it should be expected that some cleaning would be required because silver is naturally oxidised in the atmosphere and becomes a greyish colour, a process called tarnishing.
Caring for silver or silver plated tiaras involve similar processes. A soft lint-free polishing cloth and a silver polish should be used. Some silver polishes are very abrasive and would quickly remove the silver plating especially if the plating is thin. The secret to getting the cleaning right is to look for the term non-abrasive on the silver polish container and only use the polish sparingly.
Silver Rhinestone Tiaras
Silver tiaras which are accented with crystals, pearls or rhinestones are considered to be 'hot' sellers on the international market.
Tiara designers have taken genuine Austrian leaded-glass crystals, rhinestones and pearls and worked the silver tiara frames into designs either with one or a combination of these crystals to form masterpieces.
Here are some familiar descriptive terms used in the names of combination silver rhinestone tiaras that reflect the style, era and the country of origin of the design: Classic or traditional, Celtic, Regal, Royal Crown, Floral, Delicate, Romantic, Heart, Dynasty, Contessa, Empress and Butterfly.
Those silver rhinestone tiaras being used for weddings can easily reflect the wedding theme and colours. Many tiara designers provide a service where silver tiaras are commissioned for the buyer's particular event.
Silver Pearl Tiaras
Silver Pearl Tiaras reflect a quiet elegance that is not duplicable. Pearls radiate an intensely, deep shine called lustre that is produced when light is reflected off the many layers of tiny calcium carbonate crystals. This mineral and protein rich substance is called nacre. The more nacre deposited, the bigger the pearl and the greater the lustre. Pearl shapes are round, off-round, oval, teardrop and semi-baroque.
Silver pearl tiaras come in various body colours that are typically cream, white, yellow, pink, black or silver but many have secondary colour hints or overtones which are picked up by the light under careful examination.
Many individuals already own a pearl signature accessory that compliments their outfit. In this case, the silver pearl tiara would be chosen to match the accessory and form a jewellery set.
There is a little Miss Universe asleep within every grown-up girl. Wake her up. There are many beautiful silver tiaras out there waiting for her to try them on.
