EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a remarkable piece of history - King George V's picnic set from the 1920s. Crafted with exquisite attention to detail, this bespoke set is a true testament to luxury and elegance. Comprising silver, ceramic, leather, and brass elements, each piece in this regal collection bears the engraved initials of King George V himself. Supplied by Edward & Sons, renowned purveyors of fine goods during that era, this picnic set reflects the opulence associated with British society life. The photo captures the essence of summertime leisure as it portrays an al fresco dining experience fit for royalty. The tableware glistens under the sunlight while traditional cutlery and dishes are neatly arranged alongside cups and napkins within a portable case. This royal travel companion not only embodies sophistication but also practicality. Equipped with a thermos for hot or cold beverages, it allows for indulgence in refreshing drinks even on long journeys across England's picturesque landscapes. As we gaze upon this image frozen in time, we are transported back to an era where picnicking was not just an ordinary affair but rather an extravagant event reserved for kings. This extraordinary artifact serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and offers us a glimpse into the lavish lifestyle enjoyed by monarchs like King George V nearly a century ago.
