According to Chaumet, the Dentelle de Lumière tiara in white gold is "set with brilliant-cut diamonds of around 24.23 carats."

The tiara's center stones consist of 16 brilliant-cut E VVS+ diamonds for approximately 8.47 carats and the pavings have a total of 322 brilliant-cut EF VVS diamonds for 15.75 carats.
