The three tiered crown has not been used since Pope Paul VI. There is no answer as to why the first designer had the 3 crowns or rings on the papal tiara that have remained a feature of papal tiaras ever since. As a design it is very old and it may have had some connection with the holy Trinity. Later explanations of the design usually have been given to fit the design as it already was, such as "it is a reflection of the Pope's pastoral, jurisdictional and temporal powers". But these and other explanations are basically guesswork.

It is a three-tiered crown (tiara) and has more of a curved cone or ovoid shape. Popes were installed by being crowned with tiara up to and including Paul VI in 1963.
