As part of her Alternative Wedding Show 2010, Kath Libbert has invited ten top jewellery makers to create a special tiara for the occasion.

Nicola Malkin is a ceramics artist who this year presents tiaras made from clusters of porcelain roses, pink hawthorn blossom and forget-me-nots, while Nicola Perkins blends traditional with modern for a tiara featuring tiny beading and mother-of-pearl.

Ruth Tomlinson takes inspiration from her signature ‘Flora’ collection inspired by the delicacy of nature, using a unique combination of porcelain and precious metals. Malcolm Morris’s version is a simple modern style.
