Royal Crowns

What is a royal crown for the hair?

A hair royal crown is a carefully made accessory, often from an artisan jewellery workshop. It is worn on the head to mark a ceremony or an important moment, such as a wedding or a coronation. This unique piece often combines gold-tone or silver-tone finishes with stones such as diamond-effect crystals, ruby-effect crystals or pearls to accentuate its sparkle.

The setting work shows off every stone precisely, giving a solid hold and a brilliant finish. The designs of a royal crown sometimes recall historical styles, such as baroque or Victorian, which gives the accessory a vintage, refined charm. The chasing of the metals gives fine, delicate details that enhance the beauty of your hair at a special event.

Each crown can also come with a certificate of authenticity, which confirms the quality of the materials and the craftsmanship that go into it. Wearing such a crown makes you feel unique, elegant and ready to shine on any occasion.

On which occasions should you wear a royal crown?

A royal crown is chosen for moments when you really want to mark the occasion. You can wear it at a coronation, that is, when someone officially becomes king or queen, which is very special. It is also perfect for festivities that celebrate a victory or an official recognition.

At an event featuring your coat of arms, such as a family ceremony or a noble gathering, the crown shows your link with your history. Your accessory becomes a true symbol when you take part in historical reenactments, especially if you love baroque or Victorian styles. This adds a very authentic touch of old-world elegance.

The casting used in the making is designed so that the crown can be worn several times on important occasions. Choosing a crown in a gold-tone finish or with fine-looking stones embellishes your evening outfits, especially at balls, galas or themed evenings where luxury should be on show. If you want to feel unique, the crown can also be worn for a photo shoot or a family event where you want to draw every eye.

How do you choose the right size of royal crown for your hairstyle?

For your royal crown to stay in place, measure your head circumference with a simple soft tape. Put the tape where the crown will sit, neither too high nor too low, to get the right length. A crown that is too tight will quickly bother you, whereas one that is too big may fall off if you move or dance.

To show off your hairstyle, look at the height of the crown: a low shape gives a discreet style, whereas a tall one draws every eye at big occasions. For thick or voluminous hair, a wide crown, inspired by a diadem or a tiara, holds better and stops it from slipping, especially at a major event. There are also adjustable models, thanks to small discreet elastics or a ribbon system at the back: this lets you adapt the crown easily, even if you change hairstyle for the big day.

Baroque finishes with lots of crystal details are heavier, so it is better to choose shorter ones that stay comfortable all day. We advise trying the crown at least once before the big event, to see whether it fits your head well and does not pinch behind the ears. If you are preparing an elaborate hairstyle or wearing other hair jewellery, check that the ornaments of your crown do not tangle in the sticks or clips.

Also match the size of the crown with the rest of your ceremonial accessories, for a truly harmonious effect. To complete your royal look or to add relief to a braid or a bun, do not hesitate to discover our collection of hair sticks, perfect as a complement to a refined crown.
