Notes: Printed on border: "The three figures which occupy the centre of this plate represent dimly the magnificent regal jewels shown by Messrs. Hancock & Co., of London, at the Vienna Exhibition, in 1873. The design of the large tiara, stately as a mural crown, yet full of elegance, is most effective; the cross presents novelty and beauty, and the brilliant roses, buds, and leaves below present an admirable example of the stone-setter's art."
