Competition hunts for its crowning glory

TEN jewellers have created tiaras for a competition run by the Kath Libbert Jewellery Gallery at Salts Mill, Saltaire.

One entry, pictured, is a beaded flower tiara by Malcolm Morris, who made the tiaras for Gwyneth Paltrow in the film Shakespeare in Love, as well as making rings for Dawn French and Joan Collins. Nicola Malkin, an artist who works entirely in porcelain, has created a bridal crown of hawthorn, and Sarah Lawrence of Guiseley has created a delicate silver butterfly and chrysanthemum tiara.

The new wedding and valentine jewellery collections, as well as all the entries for Ten Tip Top Tiaras, can be viewed by visiting the gallery website at www.kathlibbertjewellery.co.uk.
