According to Buckingham Palace, instead of delegating the selection of a new crown for the coronation service, as is customary in the royal tradition, Camilla will wear a modified version of Queen Mary's crown during the service in Westminster Abbey on May 6, indicating that among the changes made to Camilla's crown, the removal of Replica of the Koh-i-Noor diamond, the original of which was first set on Queen Mary's crown in 1911.

The diamond was added to the crown of Queen Mother Elizabeth, as she appeared with it during the coronation ceremony of King George VI in 1937, and then Queen Elizabeth II wore it during her coronation ceremony in 1953.

The history of the 105-carat Koh-i-Noor diamond is entwined in a chain of conquest and controversy that spans centuries. This diamond passed through the hands of Persian generals, Mughal emperors, and Iranian warriors before it was presented to Queen Victoria by the Vice-President of East India in the 1840s.

"This diamond represents the bloody era in South Asian history, and its origins are somewhat obscure," said Priya Atwal, a writer and historian at the University of Oxford.

It was reported that the controversy surrounding the symbolism of the Koh-i-Noor likely contributed to Camilla's decision to exclude gems from the tiara she would wear during the coronation.

It is reported that shortly after the death of Queen Elizabeth II last year, word of mouth about the Kohinoor began to circulate on social media as users discussed royal regalia and the colonial era.

And while the UK has maintained ownership of the Kohinoor, and has held it over the years, its ownership remains a point of international contention. India, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iran all claimed it back from British possession.

And Buckingham Palace stated that Camilla's decision not to choose a new crown is aimed at "sustainability", indicating that choosing to decorate the crown with new jewelry is part of "a long-standing tradition that the introduction of jewelry is to show the individual style of the person who will wear it."
