Day 72 - Crowns


3/13/2010
A passenger on my first flight today was carrying two crowns. He makes them for festivals, beauty pageants, and for stage productions. This crown was going to an opera company in Oklahoma City.

Check out the web site for the crown maker, John W. Griffin.







Did you know the difference between a crown and a tiara is that the tiara is generally a semi-circular band, (open in the back) and a crown is a circlet with the arched pieces that connect to an ornament at the top or the fabric cap attached to the inside.
