The Royal Jewels of the Order of the Garter


In this video, part of my series on the Order of the Garter, I look at some of the historic and splendid jewelled insignia of the order worn by both Elizabeth II and Charles III. Some of the royal jewels used by the sovereigns to signify their sovereignty of the order have a fascinating history.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
