This book is amazing. I have been a fan of the Assouline Publishing house for years and have been looking for this title everywhere. Fortunately I found it here. It was delivered quickly and in pristine condition. For anyone interested in the history of tiaras this is a wonderful book. It is picture heavy and lacks text but I found this to be no problem since I mainly wanted a book that provided a visual history of tiaras throughout the ages.
