'Crown worn by George V at the Delhi Durbar in 1911', 1962. Creator: Unknown.

'Crown worn by George V at the Delhi Durbar in 1911', 1962. The Imperial Crown of India is set with 6,170 diamonds, 9 emeralds, 4 rubies, and 4 sapphires. 'For many centuries the normal crowns of England have been restricted by statute to the shores of Great Britain, and accordingly a special crown had to be made for the ceremony overseas'. The king wrote in his diary that it was heavy and uncomfortable to wear: "Rather tired after wearing my crown for 3½ hours; it hurt my head, as it is pretty heavy." The crown is part of the Royal Collection at the Tower of London. From "The Crown Jewels in the Tower of London", by Martin Holmes, F.S.A.. [Her Majesty's Stationery, London, 1962].
