The Imperial Crown of India was made for the Coronation of George V. as Emperor of India at Delhi in 1912. It is a finely designed crown of the usual English pattern, and bears a glittering array of emeralds, rubies, sapphires, 6,100 diamonds, and a very fine Indian ruby. It weighs 34.05 ounces (0.97 kg).
The crown was fashioned by Crown Jewellers, Garrard & Co, and cost £60,000. The considerable weight of the crown led King George to complain after the Durbar that his head hurt.
