Crown Tapestry Bag with Rope Strap

Crown tapestry bag with corded strap and lined with contrasting velvet & fitted with a quality beaded tassel. The Crown Jewels which are used today in Coronations and other ceremonial events in the United Kingdom are the Regalia which have been used by English Kings and Queens since 1660 or earlier. England is the only European monarchy still using its Regalia for the consecration ceremony of crowning the Sovereign. At Westminster Abbey, where William I was the first Monarch to be crowned, individuals carrying the processional regalia escort the Sovereign to the Coronation Chair (used at every coronation since 1300).

• • This tapestry bag has been created in Cornwall using Belgium tapestry fabric woven on a Jacquard loom by Master Flemish Weavers, giving an exceptional detail.

• Measures: W30 X W16cm
