1. Title: "A Regal Legacy: Lady Cory's Acquisition of Queen Victoria's Coronation Slippers in the 1930s" 2.. This photograph showcases a precious historical artifact - Queen Victoria's Coronation slippers, as they were owned by Lady Cory in the 1930s. The narrow, square-toed slippers, crafted in plum velvet, exude an air of regal elegance and sophistication. The slippers, which date back to Queen Victoria's coronation in 1837, feature the Royal Coat of Arms intricately embroidered in gold thread, adding to their grandeur and historical significance. Lady Cory, an astute collector and connoisseur of royal memorabilia, proudly added these slippers to her extensive collection during the 1930s. The plum velvet material, a rich and luxurious fabric, complements the gold embroidery, creating a stunning contrast that highlights the intricate details of the heraldic design. The narrow, square-toed shape of the slippers is a nod to the fashion trends of the time, while the bows add a feminine touch to the otherwise regal and formal design. The Coronation slippers, a symbol of the monarchy and the rich history of the British crown, are a testament to the enduring allure of royalty and the passion for collecting historical artifacts. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and significance of these exquisite slippers and the fascinating story behind Lady Cory's acquisition.
