(Mary Nersessian / CTV News) The china is made from clay sourced in Devon and Cornwall, which is then cast, fired and decorated by hand in Stoke-on-Trent, where china marking royal occasions has been made for generations. The china is then hand-finished with 22-carat gold as part of the process, which involves more than 50 artisans across 12 factories. Many of the shops in high-traffic tourist areas near Oxford Circus, Piccadilly Circus and Leicester Square carved out space for the King, with items such as party cups that can be used for The Coronation Big Lunch. Made up of neighbourhood street parties and community get-togethers, these lunches are expected to take place across the United Kingdom on May 7, in celebration of the coronation.

The royal blue china, produced in the city of Stoke-on-Trent by Royal Collection Trust, features a royal coat of arms, the King’s cypher and a garland of laurel leaves symbolizing peace. King Charles III and his wife, Queen Consort Camilla, will be crowned at London’s Westminster Abbey on May 6 in the first coronation since his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, was crowned nearly 70 years ago. That said, the most valuable items will likely be those that were never meant to be sold, such as invitations, keeping in mind the better the condition the higher the value. The queen’s desire to ensure her dress honoured all those she served demonstrated her devotion to duty. She liked her coronation dress so much she wore it six more times, one event being the Opening of Parliament in New Zealand and Australia in 1954. For any admirer of our late queen, I can’t think of a more touching royal memento to cherish,” Hornblower said. When it comes to selling royal-themed ephemera, the best times are when there is international interest in the Royal Family around large events such as a wedding or a coronation.The official coronation chinaware range from the Royal Collection Trust, pictured in Windsor Castle.
