1. Title: The Ampulla and Anointing Spoon - Crown Jewels of the British Monarchy (1936) This image showcases two of the most significant and ancient regalia pieces from the British Monarchy's Crown Jewels: the Ampulla and the Anointing Spoon. Dating back to the 13th century, these ornate and intricately designed objects have played a crucial role in the coronation ceremonies of British monarchs for centuries. The Ampulla, depicted in the left half of the photograph, is a golden, spherical vessel with a long, curved spout. It is used to hold the anointing oil during the coronation ceremony. The Ampulla is adorned with precious stones, including rubies, emeralds, and sapphires, as well as intricate gold designs and a golden bird with spread wings at the top. This bird, known as the "Holy Spirit Dove," symbolizes the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the monarch during the anointing ceremony. The Anointing Spoon, located on the right side of the photograph, is a golden spoon with a long, curved handle and a large, open bowl at the end. It is used to scoop the anointing oil from the Ampulla and apply it to the monarch's head during the coronation ceremony. The spoon is also decorated with precious stones and intricate gold designs, reflecting the grandeur and opulence of the British Monarchy. This photograph, taken in 1936, offers a glimpse into the rich history and tradition of the British Monarchy and its regalia. The Ampulla and Anointing Spoon are not only symbols of the monarch's divine right to rule but also reminders of the deep spiritual significance of the coronation ceremony. These priceless objects, along with the other Crown Jewels, continue to be safeguarded in the Tower of London, a testament to the enduring legacy of the British Monarchy.
