EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning postcard print showcases the magnificent The Prince of Wales Crown, a significant piece of British royal regalia from the early 1900s. The crown, which dates back to the late 16th century, was last significantly altered in the 1910s for the eldest son of King George V, Prince Edward, who would later become King Edward VIII and then the Duke of Windsor. The intricately designed crown is adorned with gold, ermine trim, and onyx ornaments, symbolizing the power and prestige of the monarchy. The arch-shaped structure, with its bent down ends, is reminiscent of the ancient Welsh coronets, reflecting the Prince's connection to his Welsh heritage as the Prince of Wales. The Prince of Wales is a title that has been held by the eldest living son of the monarch since the late 13th century. The title signifies the heir apparent to the throne, and the wearer of the crown embodies the future ruler of the British realms. This exquisite image captures the essence of royalty and tradition, as the Prince bends down in reverence before the regal crown, symbolizing his commitment to upholding the duties and responsibilities of the monarchy. The Prince of Wales Crown remains an enduring symbol of British heritage and the continuity of the monarchy, passed down through generations of the royal family.
