Coronation Souvenir

22 June, 2013

Here in the UK we've had quite a bit in the news recently about the iminent Royal birth, with Catherine Duchess of Cambridge due to pop in the next few weeks.

However today is also an anniversary of a coronation, that of King George V and his wife Mary of Teck. They were the paternal grandparents of the current Queen, Elizabeth II.

Coronation Souvenir Cup and Saucer by CuriosandCollectables

This vintage shop is from Shropshire in England and features a lot of decorative items, including this vintage cup and saucer created to celebrate the coronation back in 1911.

Have a nice day everyone!
