This lovely vintage halo crown comes with a matching corsage and was worn at a silver wedding (25th wedding anniversary) in the 1940s in Germany.

This is a large bridal crown decorated with delicate leaves and six flowers. In the middle there is a flower branch with a total of 4 delicate myrtle flowers, on the right and on the left between the branches there are two more.

The delicate branches of the bridal crown shine wonderfully in silver alloy. The branches are modelled on myrtle, with embossed veins on each pair of leaves making it appear as if real leaves have been dipped in silver.

With care, the branches and leaves can be bent into the desired shape so that the crown can easily be adapted to any head shape. The loops at the ends of the tiara are for fastening. A small, delicate hair ribbon can be used for support. Likewise order, the crown can be fixed in the hairstyle or to the veil with small hair clips.

The significance of myrtle: The history of the myrtle wreath goes back to antiquity. Among the Romans, the myrtle was dedicated to Venus, the goddess of love, and in Greek mythology to Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty. Therefore, the branches of the myrtle are considered a symbol of love beyond death, but also of virginity, vitality and many healthy children. With this symbolism, it is obvious that a bride was already adorned with a myrtle wreath in ancient times by the Greeks and Romans. In the 16th century, this custom also made its way into Germany. Myrtle crowns were worn for weddings and wedding anniversaries, and there was a matching pin for gentlemen. After the wedding, a branch of the bride's myrtle wreath was put in the ground to take root. The evergreen plant was supposed to symbolise lasting marital happiness.
