Duke Fulco di Verdura began his career in 1920s Paris, designing the iconic Maltese Cross Cuffs for his friend Coco Chanel. In 1934 Verdura ventured to America and designed jewels for stars of the era, including Greta Garbo and Marlene Dietrich. He officially became an "American jeweler" on September 1, 1939, when his friends, Cole Porter and Vincent Astor, financed his debut on Fifth Avenue.
Today Verdura's fine jewelry is available at the company's flagship gallery at 745 Fifth Avenue in New York, overlooking Central Park, as well as retail partners Bergdorf Goodman, select Neiman Marcus locations, Betteridge, Obsidian in London and Mindham in Toronto.

How interesting! The tiara was really special, for me. It was a strong piece but still feminine and delicate. Wearing it only one time and giving it back, for free. That is generosity.
Never heard about Verdura, he was a great jewelry designer.
How poor is US Tv. This short video has so much repetition in only 3 minutes. The Chanel cuffs are shown at least three times but they fail to mention the original Chanel cuffs are made of base metal. Sloppy reporting
Natasha paley was a niece of Alexander the 3rd. She was a first cousin of Nicholas the 2nd. Her Father Grand Duke Paul was exiled for marrying her mother who was a commoner. Her father and brother were shot by the Bolshevik’s during the revolution
Wonderful video, thanks for telling such an interesting story. Just a few small details, is Empress Theodora, not queen. She was the wife of Emperor Justinian. Empress Helena was the mother of Emperor Constantine. Incidentally, Empress Helena is credited with discovering the True Cross in Jerusalem. According to tradition, the True Cross was the cross in which Jesus Christ was crucified.
Such interesting and FUN sites for those interested ....!
