Aisha Alattiya's "The Houbara Haven" tiara, crafted by Chaumet and commissioned by Alfardan Jewellery and Qatar Museums as part of an exclusive initiative from Her Excellency Sheikha Al Mayassa bint Hamad Al Thani’, will be unveiled in October 2025 at M7 during Qatar Creates, celebrating Qatari heritage and the art of High Jewellery.

Unique treasures

From designing its first creations for Napoleon and Joséphine, the imperial couple, to crowning heads across the globe, Chaumet has crafted thousands of tiaras throughout its history, each a demonstration of prodigious savoir-faire and creativity that constantly evolves.

Adorning your head with a Chaumet tiara means being part of an exceptional heritage while boldly asserting your unique personality.

Timeless inspiration

From romanticism to naturalism and Art Deco… there are many different styles that have left their mark on Chaumet’s creations across the ages, yet the spirit of the times continues to inspire contemporary collections and new exceptional pieces.

Discover Chaumet’s historic collection of initial designs in the Salon des Diadèmes, which looks back on the evolution of Chaumet creations throughout the ages at the heart of 12 Vendôme.

Majestic

A tiara isn’t worn, it becomes part of you. Made for those with a queen’s elegance, it elevates the bold woman who wears it to exude an aura that cannot be matched. Much more than a mere accessory, this stately jewellery piece is the expression of inner strength, lighting up every movement with unparalleled greatness.

Precious Nature Creations

Inspired by the tiara’s emblematic shape, these rings crown the finger with timeless elegance, ideal for those who wish to express their strong, free spirit.
