Mellerio dits Meller s Jewelry Diaries_ 10 Jewels that Shine and Those Almost Lost

A magnificent diamond tiara, unseen by the public for decades, has suddenly resurfaced and is heading to Sotheby's Geneva this November. And its remarkable return gives me the perfect reason to open the jewelry diaries of Mellerio dits Meller, the centuries-old Parisian house that created treasures for queens, empresses and princesses, some of which are still waiting to be rediscovered. Our story will start with an extraordinary diamond tiara that Sotheby's will offer on November 11, 2026, with an estimate of 300,000 to 500,000 Swiss francs, with a name as simple as it can be - THE ORLÉANS DIAMOND TIARA. But what about the rest of their jewels?
Today we will take you on a journey through 10 jewels made by Mellerio, where some still shine at royal palaces, and some have almost disappeared.
