Queen Mary's Lover's Knot Tiara

It's one of the most recognisable tiaras for modern royal watchers. Most closely associated with Princess Diana, it began its life in 1913 when Queen Mary asked Garrard & Co. to make a copy of a tiara owned by her grandmother. After Queen Mary's death, it passed down to Queen Elizabeth, who gave it as a wedding gift to Princess Diana.

It returned to the royal collection following Diana's death, and it's most recently been seen being worn by her daughter-in-law, the Duchess of Cambridge. The exact value has never been confirmed, but estimates are typically in the £700,000 to £2 million range.
