A Closer Look at the Miss Universe Crown Worth a Quarter of a Billion Pesos By Mouawad
Every year, a woman is crowned Miss Universe and given all the privileges that come with the title. One of which is access to the most expensive Miss Universe crown in history—the “Power of Unity” crown by luxury company Mouawad.
Crafted by the Swiss and Emirati jeweler, the crown is reportedly worth $5 million (P251 million), which is a humble amount for the world-class jewelry company. Mouawad holds the record for owning the most valuable necklace in the world: the $55 million Mouawad L’Incomparable Diamond Necklace featuring the world’s largest internally flawless diamond (407 carats).
In the hands of this premier jeweler, the Miss Universe “Power of Unity” crown was outfitted with 1,725 white diamonds and three golden canary diamonds, all set in an intricate pattern that mimics petals, leaves, and vines. The crown’s centerpiece is the magnificent modified mixed cut golden canary diamond that weighs 62.83 carats.
As with all things Miss Universe, there’s a meaning to the crown’s design as the interconnected diamond vines represent strength in unity while the golden canary diamonds symbolize a golden age for women of all backgrounds.
Here’s a closer look at the details of the Mouawad crown and its newest bearer
