The Bride's Jewellery

Prince William and Catherine Middleton chose Wartski to make the Wedding Ring for Miss Middleton.
The veil is made of layers of soft, ivory silk tulle with a trim
of hand-embroidered flowers, which weres embroidered by the Royal
School of Needlework.
The veil is held in place by a Cartier 'halo' tiara, lent to Miss
Middleton by The Queen. The 'halo' tiara was made by Cartier
in 1936 and was purchased by The Duke of York (later King George
VI) for his Duchess (later Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother) three
weeks before he succeeded his brother as King. The tiara was
presented to Princess Elizabeth (now The Queen) by her mother on
the occasion of her 18th birthday.
The Bride's earrings, by Robinson Pelham, were diamond-set
stylised oak leaves with a pear shaped diamond set drop and a pavé
set diamond acorn suspended in the centre. Inspiration for the
design comes from the Middleton family's new coat of arms, which
includes acorns and oak leaves. The earrings were made to echo the
tiara. The earrings were a personal gift to the Bride from her
parents for her Wedding Day.
