It was announced today that Princess Mako (25), the eldest daughter of Prince Akishino and Princess Kiko, and the eldest grandchild of Emperor Akihito and Empress Michiko is set to be engaged to a former classmate at her university and is expected to marry next year. It was confirmed by the Imperial Household Agency that her fiancé is Kei Komuro, a 25-year-old graduate student at Tokyo’s Hitotsubashi University who also works at a law firm. It will be the first engagement among the four grandchildren of Emperor Akihito and Empress Michiko.
Princess Mako received a complete parure of jewelry when she turned 20 and officially came of age. Included in the parure is a tiara, earrings, a necklace, a brooch, and bracelets. The set was made by Japanese jeweler Wako, and was first worn in October 2011, when the Princess made an official visit to the Emperor and Empress as part of her coming of age events.

This gold and platinum tiara is adorned with 367 diamonds and has been valued at about $1.31 million. Until late last month it was locked up in a cabinet in the throne room of the Badisches Landesmuesum in the city of Karlsruhe. On April 29 the museum discovered it had been stolen.
The tiara once belonged to Grand Duchess Hilda von Baden. She was married to Grand Duke Friedrich II, who ascended to the throne in 1907 and ruled over the territory of Baden. A statement from the Badisches Landesmuesum says that the headpiece may have been crafted for the occasion of Friedrich II’s coronation. The couple’s reign, however, was short-lived: Friedrich II was forced to abdicate in 1918, after Germany’s defeat in WWI.
Baden-Wuerttemberg criminal police said they are now looking for witnesses who may have seen something suspicious around the time of the theft.
