Silver tiara and pin of Freund and Falk family, 1892.
Stephen Falk and Donald Falk, Point Roberts, Washington, USA
In 1892, Wilhelm Salomon Freund and his wife Clara celebrated their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary. During the celebrations, Clara wore a silver tiara and brooch. They thus initiated a tradition that has survived among their descendants in the United States, with slight modification, to this day: on the tenth and twenty-fifth wedding anniversaries, the ladies still wear the tiara, while the gentlemen have begun wearing the brooch.
