On the evening of January 14, 2026, Grand Duke Guillaume and Grand Duchess Stéphanie hosted the traditional New Year’s Reception for members of the Government, the Council of State, representatives of the Judiciary, heads of the administration, and foreign ambassadors at the Luxembourg Grand Ducal Palace in Luxembourg.
This reception marked the first traditional New Year’s Reception to be held since Grand Duke Guillaume’s accession to the throne. On this occasion, the couple received the wishes of the President and members of the Bureau of the Chamber of Deputies, the Prime Minister and members of the Government, and other guests. For the occasion, the Grand Duchess wore the Citrine and Pearl Tiara and parure.

Citrine and Pearl Tiara and Parure




Extra citrines added to the necklace? I’m sure it’s an easier parure to wear, but I would have loved to see a diamond tiara! Very touching soft looks between the grand ducal couple.
ردحذفShe looks stunning!
ردحذفThe red color has a red softness about it. And the are looking so happy together🤩
Quel couple magnifique ; j’adore ses bijoux qui se combinent à merveille avec la couleur miel de ses cheveux !
ردحذفWhat a lovely, heartwarming couple!
ردحذفI like the earrings with the citrines. I do not like the necklace and the tiara. The earrings could be worn with a yellow or golden dress without adding any other jewelery. The red dress fits the GD and suits her.I think Belgium is the only country were the receptions are taking place during daytime. No tiaras or gala military uniforms needed. I like the simple approach in my country.
ردحذفNo tiaras?! I come to this site to enjoy tiaras whenever they are possible! Love seeing royal jewels used! I love this delicate tiara on Stephanie!

حذفI said no tiaras during day time. On a state banquet yes, but not on a reception during the day if you are the host for several international organisations. Not every country has a monarchy. The people who are coming to greet the king and queen are almost never royalty. They just happen to do their job in Belgium. It has never been the custom in Belgium that the king and queen where dressed in full gala outfit during these receptions to meet with ambassadors, people from the European institutions, people from Nato and Shape, their own ministers etc... These pictures do not show the people who are invited with a drink in their hands. They are all dressed in city wear. The men in a suit and the ladies in a 2 pieces or a dress. The people from Africa and Asia often in their traditional outfits...
Beautiful and happy looking couple! The red dress is a great fit on GDS and GDG looks very handsome in his regalia.
ردحذفStephanie looks great as well as her husband. I think the citrine necklace and tiara match very well with her Orange decoration
ردحذفWhat a pity that the Citrine Tiara, a piece I actually quite like, is rather invisible the way she chose to have her hair styled. I preferred it with the higher updo. The gown is nice on her, but the necklace is massive and overwhelms her, although it's part of the parure it seems to clash a little with the more delicate tiara.
ردحذفVery well said. I fully agree. I do not like the placement of the tiara. CC
حذفStephanie has a smile that lights up her face like a sunburst. Very lovely woman and a very loving couple.
ردحذفThe Grand Ducal couple look nicely color-coordinated with each other’s outfits and sashes.

حذفThe name of the gems is "citrine".
Both are sooooooooooooooo lovely and stunning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ردحذفAgree!
حذفThe second photo is so lovely.
ردحذفI think the GD looks quite lovely in this dress. The color and style is perfect for her. Not a fan of the citrine jewellery, I would have preferred the Pearl Chaumet Choker tiara and matching Pearl earrings.
Lowri.
Agree with all your points, well said.
حذفGreat look. I wish the GD would get his beard back, he looked great with it.
