    Queen Elizabeth 11 and the St Edward crown

    St Edward's Crown is the centrepiece of the Crown Jewels of the United Kingdom.[2] Named after Saint Edward the Confessor, versions of the crown have been traditionally used to crown English and British monarchs at their coronations since the 13th century.

    Interestingly now that Queen Elizabeth has died it means no living person at this present point in time has ever worn this crown

    St Edward's Crown




    Queen Elizabeth II wore two crowns for her coronation - St Edward's Crown, which is made from solid gold and 440 gemstones, and the Imperial State Crown. Only Queen Elizabeth II, the Archibishop of Canterbury, and the crown's jeweller are allowed to touch St Edward's Crown.

    Interesting. We wondered about a crown for King Charles?
