Royal Crown - The Great Imperial Crown of Russia . The Great Imperial Crown made in 1762 for the coronation of Empress Catherine the Great of Russia by the court jeweler J.Pauzie represents the height of creative imagination, lavish beauty and skilled workmanship. It is adorned with five thousand diamonds arranged in a splendid pattern of laurel wreaths and oak branches. The glitter of the diamonds is enhanced by two rows of gleaming pearls and the crown is topped by a huge red spinel, the second largest in the world . . . #royalcrown #royaljewelry #royalhistory #imperialcrown #empresscatherine #catherinethegreat #russianimperial https://www.instagram.com/p/B0F6IltHpNY/?igshid=1suj43aes85bp
