Royal Collection Coronation Commemorator Teapot

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II acceded to the throne in February 1952 and her Coronation took place nearly eighteen months later on 2nd June 1953. This English fine bone china commemorates the 60th anniversary of the Coronation. The design reflects the pomp and pageantry of the Coronation procession; the Coat of Arms is from the heraldic bearings of the coaches. The border decoration is taken from the silk damask banners of the State Trumpets which heralded the moment of crowning at Westminster Abbey.
