Creation: The original tiara was made in 1957 by Garrard to match the aquamarine jewelry given to Queen Elizabeth II from the President and People of Brazil on the occasion of her 1953 coronation. In 1971, the tiara was heavily altered to include four scroll ornaments taken from a piece of jewelry given to Queen Elizabeth II by the Governor of Sao Paulo in 1968 and the large central aquamarine from the Brazilian necklace given in 1953.
