Evangeline Crown
Handmade in the UK by Howling Moon
Evangeline looks like something that grew.
Delicate metallic branches rise around the head, unfurling into leaves and ornate filigree flowers, while slender glass points emerge between them like crystals discovered amongst the undergrowth.
Our Evangeline sample combines deep emerald green stones with antique brass, giving the crown the rich, earthy feeling of an old enchanted woodland - but changing the stone and metal colours transforms her completely.
Choose clear stones with bright silver for something icy and ethereal, amber with antique copper for autumnal warmth, or let aqua aura glass catch the light in shifting rainbow tones.
Despite her height and intricacy, Evangeline is designed to be lightweight and comfortable to wear.
The Feeling
Evangeline belongs somewhere between wild garden and fairy court.
She's botanical without becoming a flower crown, regal without the formality of a traditional tiara, and fantastical without feeling like costume.
The branches climb rather than sit neatly around the head. Leaves twist between crystal-like points. Tiny flowers appear amongst the metalwork.
There's something beautifully unruly about her.
For the person who wants to look as though they walked into the woods dressed for their wedding and came back wearing something the forest decided was missing.
Features
Ethereal woodland bridal crown
Branching botanical silhouette
Delicate leaf and floral filigree detailing
Glass crystal-point embellishments
Choice of six stone colours
Choice of four metal finishes
Lightweight construction designed for comfortable wear
Handmade in the UK by Howling Moon
Beautiful for woodland, gothic, pagan, fairy, fantasy and alternative bridal styling
Stone Options
The glass points are available in:
Green — deep, rich and beautifully woodland
Clear — luminous, icy and ethereal
Amber — warm, earthy and autumnal
Purple — dark, magical and slightly otherworldly
Pink — softer and unexpectedly romantic
Aqua Aura — a shifting rainbow sheen that catches and changes with the light
Unlike some of the Howling Moon pieces in our collection, Evangeline's coloured points are glass rather than natural stone, allowing us to offer a much broader spectrum of colour.
And frankly, I like being really transparent about that rather than letting “crystal crown” accidentally imply they're all pieces of quartz.
Metal Options
Choose from:
Bright Gold
Bright Silver
Antique Brass
Antique Copper
The metal finish can change Evangeline almost as much as the stones.
Bright silver and gold bring out her more celestial, fairy-court side, while antique brass and copper make the branches feel older, earthier and as though they might have been unearthed rather than newly made.
Our studio sample combines emerald green with antique brass.
Styling Evangeline
Evangeline is a statement crown, but the open structure stops her from feeling heavy around the face.
She's particularly beautiful against loose waves, braids and textured updos, where the branches can appear to grow upwards through the hair.
With a simple dress, she can become the focal point of the whole look. Against lace, chiffon, embroidery or other botanical details, she becomes part of a much more layered, otherworldly silhouette.
And there are no prescribed dress pairings here.
Choose your crown the same way we encourage you to choose your dress: because something about it feels like you.
Handmade in the UK
Each Evangeline headpiece is individually handmade to order in the UK by Howling Moon.
Current production time is approximately 4–6 weeks. If you're working to a shorter timescale, please contact us before ordering and we'll let you know what may be possible.
Elodie Crown
Handmade in the UK by Howling Moon
Elodie is built around one material: moonstone.
Natural moonstones sit amongst delicate branching metalwork, following the head in an organic woodland silhouette rather than rising into the structure of a traditional tiara.
Our studio sample pairs moonstone with antique silver, giving Elodie a beautifully pale, quiet quality, but she can also be created in bright gold, antique brass or antique copper.
The design is also available with natural labradorite as her darker sister, Luna.
The Feeling
Elodie feels like moonlight through bare branches.
She's quieter than many of the Howling Moon designs. There are no enormous crystal points or elaborate flowers competing for attention — just pale natural stones held amongst delicate metalwork.
Witchy without being theatrical. Woodland without being leafy. Ethereal without disappearing into conventional bridal prettiness.
For someone who wants their magic whispered rather than announced.
Features
Ethereal moonstone bridal crown
Genuine natural moonstone
Organic branching metalwork
Choice of four metal finishes
Each natural stone varies slightly
Handmade to order in the UK by Howling Moon
Our studio sample is antique silver with moonstone
Also available in natural labradorite as the Luna Crown
Moonstone
Elodie is available exclusively with natural moonstone.
Because moonstone is a natural material, individual stones will vary in translucency, markings, colour and the way they respond to light.
Those variations mean no two Elodie crowns will ever be completely identical.
Metal Options
Choose from:
Antique Silver
Bright Gold
Antique Brass
Antique Copper
Antique silver gives Elodie her coolest, most moonlit character, while brass, copper and gold bring warmth to the same pale stones.
Elodie or Luna?
Elodie and Luna share the same beautiful branching design but use different natural gemstones.
Choose Elodie for the softer luminosity of moonstone.
Choose Luna for labradorite and its darker colour with flashes of shifting light.
Same silhouette. Completely different atmosphere.
Handmade to Order
Each Elodie crown is individually handmade to order in the UK by Howling Moon using natural moonstone.
Current production time is approximately 4–6 weeks.
Verdant Indie Crown
Handmade in the UK by Howling Moon
Verdant Indie feels like the forest in full growth.
Natural quartz points rise between sweeping metallic branches and clusters of leaves, creating an organic woodland crown that feels abundant without becoming heavy or overly formal.
Similar in spirit to our Dusk Indie crown, Verdant has a fuller botanical silhouette, with its distinctive leaf detailing giving the impression of foliage growing upwards and around the stones.
Choose green quartz for the deepest woodland version, pink hematite for something softer and stranger, or Purple AB quartz for an iridescent finish that shifts as it catches the light.
Each crown is handmade using organic stones, so the exact shapes and arrangement will naturally vary. No two will be completely identical — exactly as we'd expect from something inspired by the wild.
The Feeling
If Dusk belongs to the forest as the light begins to disappear, Verdant belongs to the moment everything starts growing back.
Leaves unfurl around raw stone. Branches reach upwards. Nothing is particularly interested in growing neatly.
There's something ancient about her, but also very alive.
Green quartz with antique brass pushes Verdant deep into enchanted-woodland territory, while brighter metals and iridescent stones can transform the same crown into something altogether more ethereal.
She's for the person who wants botanical bridalwear without prettiness being the whole point.
Wild, rooted and gloriously overgrown.
Features
Ethereal woodland bridal crown
Natural quartz stone points
Branch and leaf detailing
Fuller botanical silhouette
Choice of three stone finishes
Choice of four metal finishes
Organic stones make every crown subtly individual
Handmade to order in the UK by Howling Moon
Beautiful for woodland, pagan, ethereal, fantasy and alternative bridal styling
Stone Options
Green Quartz
Rich and earthy, bringing out everything woodland about Verdant. Paired with antique brass or copper, it feels particularly organic and almost ancient.
Pink Hematite
A softer and more unexpected option, bringing warmth to the botanical structure without making the crown feel conventionally bridal.
Purple AB Quartz
Quartz with an iridescent finish that shifts through purple and rainbow tones as it catches the light. This is Verdant at her most otherworldly.
Because the stones are organic, their exact size, shape, texture and formation will vary from crown to crown.
That's part of their character, not something we're trying to standardise away.
Metal Options
Verdant Indie is available in:
Bright Gold
Bright Silver
Antique Brass
Antique Copper
Bright metals bring out Verdant's lighter, more ethereal side, while antique brass and copper emphasise the woodland quality of the branches and foliage.
Changing the combination of stone and metal can completely change her character.
Styling Verdant
Verdant looks particularly beautiful woven into textured hair, loose waves, braids and relaxed updos, where the branching silhouette can feel almost as though it's growing through the hair.
The stronger leaf detail also makes her a lovely choice alongside dresses with botanical lace, flowing chiffon and softer, organic silhouettes.
But as always, we don't believe your headpiece needs to be assigned to your dress.
If Verdant is the one that feels like yours, that's enough.
Wearing Verdant With a Veil
Verdant's open structure allows the leaves and quartz points to remain visible against soft tulle, making her an unexpectedly beautiful partner for a veil.
Wear the veil behind the crown to create softness and scale without hiding the organic silhouette.
Natural Stones
Howling Moon creates Verdant using organic stone points, which means every finished crown will vary slightly from the photographs.
Individual stones may differ in shape, size, texture and colour, and the overall silhouette may therefore have tiny variations too.
We think that's exactly how a crown like Verdant should be.
Nature isn't particularly interested in making two things identical either.
Handmade in the UK
Each Verdant Indie headpiece is individually handmade to order in the UK by Howling Moon.
Current production time is approximately 4–6 weeks. If you're working to a shorter timescale, please contact us before ordering and we'll let you know what may be possible.
Willow Crown
Handmade in the UK by Howling Moon
Willow winds around the head in slender metallic branches, dotted with leaves and genuine gemstones.
Our studio sample combines antique silver with natural amethyst, but Willow can also be created with strawberry quartz, aventurine, labradorite, rose quartz or rock crystal — each stone changing the character of the piece while leaving its delicate, organic silhouette untouched.
Rather than rising dramatically above the head, Willow follows its shape like something growing around it.
Quietly magical, beautifully irregular and unmistakably otherworldly.
The Feeling
Willow feels old.
Not antique in the traditional bridal sense, but as though she belongs to an older story altogether — woodland paths, ancient trees and the sort of place where finding a crown amongst the roots might not be the strangest thing that happened that day.
Her slender branches and genuine gemstones give her an elven quality without tipping into costume.
There is magic here, but it's quiet.
Something ancient rather than something sparkling.
Features
Elven-inspired gemstone crown
Organic branch and leaf metalwork
Genuine natural gemstones
Choice of six stones
Antique silver or antique gold finish
Natural variations make each piece individual
Handmade to order in the UK by Howling Moon
Our studio sample is antique silver with amethyst
Gemstone Options
Choose from:
Strawberry Quartz — softly coloured with natural variation
Aventurine — earthy green with subtle natural depth
Amethyst — rich violet quartz
Labradorite — known for its natural flashes of shifting blue, green and gold
Rose Quartz — translucent, softly pink quartz
Rock Crystal — clear quartz, raw and luminous
These are genuine stones, so colour, markings, translucency and shape will naturally vary.
That's part of Willow's beauty: nature doesn't make matching sets.
Metal Options
Willow is available in:
Antique Silver
Antique Gold
The deliberately aged finishes suit Willow particularly well, keeping the branches soft and organic rather than highly polished.
Styling Willow
Willow works beautifully with loose waves, braids and textured updos, where the slender branches can almost disappear into the hair before the gemstones catch the light.
She's an especially lovely choice for someone who loves the idea of an alternative crown but doesn't want height or a traditional tiara silhouette.
Handmade to Order
Each Willow crown is individually handmade to order in the UK by Howling Moon using genuine gemstones.
Current production time is approximately 4–6 weeks.
