EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the intricate process of creating the coronation crown for Queen Elizabeth, the future Queen Mother, in 1937. The image features Mr. Charles Stone, a skilled craftsman from the esteemed jewellery house of Garrards, meticulously assembling the various components of the crown. The crown, which was originally designed for Queen Victoria and subsequently modified for each succeeding monarch's coronation, boasted four crosses, or patee, and four fleurs de lys. The most renowned feature of the crown was the Koh-i-Noor diamond, which was set in the front cross patee. In preparation for Queen Elizabeth's coronation as the consort of King George VI, the crown was adapted by including four complete arches instead of the eight half arches that were present in Queen Mary's crown. The historical significance of this momentous event is palpable as Mr. Stone carefully puts the pieces together, showcasing the rich heritage and tradition of the British monarchy. Garrards, the esteemed court jewellers, have been responsible for creating some of the most iconic regalia in British history. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the behind-the-scenes preparations for one of the most important events in the royal calendar. The intricate details, the concentration on Mr. Stone's face, and the sense of history in the air all contribute to the captivating allure of this image.
