The Regalia. - 7: A Glimpse into the Rich History of British Royal Ceremonial Objects This photograph print, titled 'The Regalia. - 7', dates back to the early 1910s and showcases two significant objects from the British Crown Jewels: a Baptismal Font and a State Salt-cellar. The image, though the creator remains unknown, is taken from 'The Portrait Book of Our Kings and Queens 1066-1911', edited by T. Leman Hare. The Baptismal Font, crafted of silver, gilt, and tastefully chased, is adorned with two figures symbolizing the baptismal rite. This font holds a rich history, having been used at Royal christenings. However, a new font was manufactured for Queen Victoria, making this one a historical relic. The State Salt-cellar, another intriguing piece, is also visible in the photograph. Its exact origins are not mentioned in the source text, but it is clear that it holds a place of importance in the regalia of the British monarchy. This photograph offers a glimpse into the grandeur and tradition of British royalty, showcasing the beauty and significance of these objects that have been a part of royal events and ceremonies for centuries. The Baptismal Font and State Salt-cellar are not just objects; they are symbols of the rich history, culture, and religious traditions that have shaped the British monarchy.
