I purchased this and used it at my wedding. I am the third owner. I wore it for about two hours during the ceremony and the first half of the reception. The tiara, which has decorations that extend to the back of the ears, sparkled in photos from any angle. There are no noticeable scratches or stains, nor are there any missing accessories, but please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned, as this is a personal inspection. There are a few spots that look slightly yellow (see photos 1 and 2), and there is some wear on the round holes where the bobby pins are inserted, but neither were noticeable when worn. My friends complimented me, saying it was a princess-like tiara. Please refer to the images for details of the tiara. The box has some wear and tear. Ivory & Co. Alexandra Tiara
