EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases Queen Victoria's skates, a fascinating relic from the past, manufactured by the renowned companies Marsden Brothers and Silverwood of Sheffield in 1854. The skates, which are not to be confused with the companies themselves, provide a glimpse into the history of winter sports and the royal pastime of skating. Queen Victoria, an avid skater, is known to have enjoyed this frozen pastime since her childhood. Her love for skating continued well into her reign, making it a popular activity at the royal courts. The skates, crafted with meticulous attention to detail, reflect the advanced skills and expertise of the Sheffield-based manufacturers. The Marsden Brothers and Silverwood, two prominent names in the field of skate manufacturing, collaborated to create these exquisite pieces. The skates feature intricately designed metal bindings, secured with laces, and sharp, pointed blades made of iron. The bindings were designed to fit the queen's feet perfectly, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit. This photograph, taken in the mid-19th century, offers a rare glimpse into the royal pastime and the advanced equipment used during that era. The image also underscores the importance of Sheffield as a hub for skate manufacturing, with Marsden Brothers and Silverwood leading the way in producing high-quality skates for the elite. As we admire this historical artifact, we are transported back in time, imagining the queen gracefully gliding across the ice, surrounded by her courtiers, creating cherished memories on the frozen lakes and ponds of the royal estates.
