The Memories of Her Majesty at Christmas Collection
Christmas has always been a time for reflection, family, and cherished traditions. For Queen Elizabeth II, it was no different. Her life, entwined with this festive season, was marked by poignant moments that captured the essence of her reign and personal warmth. This year, as we celebrate her memory, we invite you to journey through these moments with our exclusive commemorative collection that captures five special Christmas memories from Her Majesty’s life.
A Young Princess Singing Carols with Her Sister
Long before her ascension to the throne, the young Princess Elizabeth shared precious Christmas moments with her sister, Princess Margaret. The image of the two young royals singing carols together evokes the innocence and joy of childhood during the festive season. This commemorative celebrates the timeless tradition of Christmas carols and the joyful spirit of youth.
The Queen’s Speech
In 1952, Queen Elizabeth II delivered her very first Christmas speech over the radio. A solemn yet hopeful message, she marked the beginning of what would become a beloved tradition for generations. This commemorative celebrates that historic moment, reminding us of her unwavering dedication and connection with the nation, even at such an early stage in her reign.
Family at Windsor Castle
The late 1960s saw the Queen spending Christmas with her family at Windsor Castle. These were times of warmth, laughter, and the simple pleasures of togetherness. Our commemorative captures the joy of these festive family gatherings, symbolising the importance of unity and the deep family bonds the Queen cherished.
Visiting the Church of St Mary Magdalene
One of the Queen’s most cherished Christmas traditions was attending the service at the Church of St Mary Magdalene on the Sandringham Estate. Surrounded by family and well-wishers, these visits became a hallmark of her reign during the festive season. This commemorative captures these precious moments from the 1990s, symbolising her devotion and the enduring connection she shared with the community.
Riding in the Snow at Sandringham
An avid equestrian, Queen Elizabeth II often embraced the wintry landscapes of Sandringham. The image of her riding through the snow exemplifies her love for nature and tradition. This commemorative pays tribute to her resilient, adventurous spirit and her love for horses, showing a side of the Queen that many have admired over the years.
