1934: The Begum Aga Khan, the third wife of Mohamed Shah Aga Khan III, ordered an Egyptian-inspired tiara from Cartier London in 1934. In platinum and old- and baguette-cut round diamonds, it is composed of two parts. The upper part forms a halo of stylized lotus blossoms while the lower part, with its zigzag motifs, may be detached to form a bandeau.
