Commemorative china and royal souveniers honoring coronations and other British royal events date from the 1600's and form the basis for the category of British Royal Memorabilia. Queen Victoria, King George VI, King George V, King George V and Mary, Queen Elizabeth II, and their families are favorite subjects memorialized through portraiture and silhouette in antique porcelain, vintage antique ceramic, antique tin, and antique glass wares.
