Queen Victoria wore a diadem and her little crown together for opening the Great Exhibition on 1 May 1851 . A segment from the online Journal [Vol 31 p217] states - “ I forgot to mention that I wore a dress of pink(?) & silver, with a diamond ray Diadem & little crown at the back with 2 feathers, all the best of my jewels being diamonds. “Edit and correction: that was Queen Charlotte's little crown.
