The Coronation of King Charles lll, a second instalment.
It doesn’t seem long ago that I sat at my desk in our new offices to write the introduction to the last catalogue. In early March many of our suppliers were rushing to get their Coronation ranges together but many were not available in time so we felt that rather than wait until early May for our next full catalogue we would put together a special interim catalogue to get the details of the new pieces to you as soon as possible. Interest worldwide in the Coronation commemoratives has been far greater than we had expected and as a result some ranges have already sold out and others are in very heavy demand. If you do want a memento of this historic occasion, we do urge you not to wait too long before ordering as we would hate our loyal customers to be disappointed.
It is refreshing to see so many of our great British companies producing inspiring ranges to mark this memorable day. The skills in this country are still admired all over the world and we love sending so many of these beautiful pieces to enthusiastic collectors in far away lands. Carrs silver in Sheffield are a family-owned company producing some of the best silverware ranges. We had a fantastic response to the specially hallmarked items which were done for the Platinum Jubilee and we are delighted that a new Hallmark has been developed for use during the time of the Coronation. We have commissioned special pieces from Carrs using this hallmark which we are featuring for the first time.
Being based in the heart of Staffordshire we have a very strong link to our local pottery manufacturers and love to support them as much as we can, and they seem to like working with us and have been hugely encouraging over the past four years. Moorcroft in particular have worked closely with us on exclusive items and we were delighted when they agreed to do an exclusive design for us to celebrate the Coronation. They have also developed their own range which we are showing for the first time. Demand for Moorcroft is particularly strong at present and so we are expecting a lot of interest in this fabulous range.
Despite many of the big brands in Stoke on Trent moving production overseas the potteries remain at the heart of specialist ceramic production. Our own exclusive ranges are made and decorated in one of the iconic five towns of Stoke on Trent. The new range from family-owned Edwardian China is continuing the long tradition of Royal commemoratives made in the potteries.
Over lockdown many people rediscovered the joy to be had from puzzles. In our house there was never a time when there was not one underway. Our own Goviers wooden puzzles are designed by Caroline Dadd and made in the UK. Each one is tested by Janet before it goes into production. The first cut sample was delivered yesterday and so the race was on to get it finished. Unfortunately Janet had to hand it over to Oliver’s fiancé Hannah to complete as bedtime called last night. The general verdict was that it was our most challenging yet!
We are always on the lookout for new items to add to our collection and often we are amazed that we have not found them before. Spode have a delightful range of commemorative pieces in their signature blue and white. We all love this style of design and were delighted when we were able to include it in this catalogue.
There are many different pieces being done to mark the Coronation on 6th May, not all are things that we feel fit into our range but when I saw the Coronation Walking Stick my interest was sparked. I immediately rang and got the MD of this family-owned company based in the UK. It turned out that the MD was also the designer, and we had a long chat about what they did and the production of their pieces. All the sticks are made in Germany to very exacting standards. Many of the designs are great fun and bring a touch of style to an item that can be rather underwhelming. I am looking forward to adding one of the umbrellas to the antique coat stand that I have just purchased and if my leg does not improve, I will be investing in a walking stick very soon.
Last but by no means least Halcyon Days have added yet more pieces to their very extensive range. Being holders of many Royal Warrants, they have slightly more exacting approval requirements than most so many of the ranges were not available in time for our last catalogue. Once again the designs are a fitting tribute on the occasion of the Coronation of King Charles and Camilla the Queen Consort.
We hope that we have selected the very best ranges to commemorate the Coronation and we look forward to the day, even if it clashes with our son’s wedding!

This glorious scene is adorned with many of the things that reflect the King's love of the British people, animals, conservation and the environment, whilst the royal couple’s rescue dogs sit dutifully at their feet.
Inscribed inside the lid: Evoking plentiful pageantry and celebration combined with religious formalities that have remained similar to those conducted for over a thousand years, the coronation ceremony service is led by the Archbishop of Canterbury. An occasion like no other, the ceremony has taken place at Westminster Abbey for over 900 years.

The anointing is the most sacred part of the coronation ceremony, and takes place before the investiture and crowning. Traditionally, the Archbishop pours holy oil from an ampulla, into a spoon, and anoints the sovereign on the hands, chest and head. The gesture dates back to the Old Testament Book of Kings and the anointing of Solomon as King.
Reflecting a modern monarchy, the ancient recipe for the coronation anointing oil has been updated to include olive oil scented with a mix of essential oils, benzoin, cinnamon, jasmine, neroil, rose, sesame, with orange blossom also added. It was these coronation emblems that inspired Nicola to create a design fit for our new King. Oranges and burnished brown cinnamon sticks sit amongst white roses with soft cream shading at their centres, and small star-shaped jasmine flowers - all set against the dramatic backdrop of a classic Moorcroft dark blue ground.
The ampulla dates back to Roman time, and was a small round vessel with two handles, used for sacred purposes. Nicola wanted to emulate this ancient shape with her contemporary design and so Moorcroft’s classic twin-handled vase has been re-imagined for King Charles III’s coronation on a new and smaller shape to mark this very special historic occasion.
The Coronation of King Charles III will take place at Westminster Abbey in London on Saturday 6th May. The Abbey has been Britain’s coronation church since 1066 and King Charles III will be the 40th reigning monarch to be crowned there.
Due to the historic and important role the Abbey has played in the nation’s coronation services for almost 1000 years; Kerry wanted to include a number of its key architectural elements within her design to celebrate the occasion. The abbey has the highest Gothic vault in England and its arches surround the circumference of this round lidded box while the black and white triangular band, that runs around the base, pays homage to the chequerboard floor that runs past the choir stands to the high altar.
Finally, the magnificent Rose Window inspired one of the most intricate lids Moorcroft has ever created. As for the shape itself, this harks back to the time of founder William Moorcroft, when it was last used to celebrate the coronation of King Charles III’s grandfather, King George VI on 12th May 1937. Its revival at Moorcroft pays tribute to the past, while commemorating the new Carolean era.
Queen of the Border
Designed by Emma Bossons Ltd H 35cm W 13.5cm £1835“For me, the magnificent, gloriously apparelled delphinium. With its impeccable bearing and massed in platoons, holds pride of place in my botanical affects” – King Charles III.
Delphiniums gained the name Queen of the Border since their tall flower spikes make excellent perennial borders in gardens and classic landscapes. Indeed, His Majesty King Charles III, has declared that his favourite flowers are the gloriously apparelled delphinium. It might then be assumed, that if his wife, and Queen Consort Camilla, were to be a flower, she would be a delphinium.
The name origin of delphiniums comes from the Greek word delphin (dolphin) due to the flower’s spur resembling a dolphin’s back. Queen of the Border is a feminine design, with Art Nouveau curves that comes crashing down like Hokusai’s Great waves off Kanagawa in which Prussian blue wood block paints invigorated a new art movement. The blue hues hand painted layer by layer, hold an electric mix of colour, where regal purples, soft cornflower and cobalt blues charge the senses through a host of delphiniums in flower and bud, each a reflection of its kind and yet something refreshingly unique.
Queen Consort Camilla will be a host to Presidents, Kings and Queens, Heads of State and so much more. Nevertheless, she will also be our Queen of Borders, protector and champion to a budding new generation, as well as the lost and the forgotten, in truth, those who she has, quietly and steadfastly, already served.
NEW Garden Of Kings
Designed by Kerry Goodwin. H 15.5cm incl knob, W 13cm £1475
It is a well-known fact that His Majesty King Charles III is an avid champion of the delphinium, with his own beloved Highgrove Gardens holding these towering kings within the Cottage Garden, Sundial Garden, and Kitchen Garden throughout June. And so, it is with this Moorcroft design.
The commanding presence of the delphinium blooms soar up the side of this lidded pot, a shape not released since the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth in 1953, with erect racemes of corn-eyed, soft, azure to pimpernel-blue flowers rising over Highgrove itself.
It has been said that the heart of kings should not lie in Royal palaces but in the garden itself. The lid, topped with a monde, as found on the St. Edward's Crown, a crown historically used at the moment of coronation from the coronation of King Charles II in 1661 to H.M. King Charles III himself, is delicately circled with delphinium blooms, which arch, one over another, like the Baroque arches of the Coronation Crown itself.
The weather is truly a British preoccupation, we are never happy, too cold, too hot, too wet, too dry! At least with these high quality umbrellas we can be prepared if it rains on our coronation parade.
