    State Coat with Charles III cypher


    Recommended Posts

    Spotted in the May 2023 issue of Soldier Magazine, the 'house rag' of the British Army.

     

    State Coats are the 'gold' ones worn by fanfare trumpeters, the mounted band of the Household Cavalry, and Foot Guards Drum Majors on State occasions. They are actually red velvet heavily embroidered with gold lace, so at a distance they look gold.

    A couple of weeks ( 3rd. May) ago there was quite a good program on BBC2 (U.K.) about the family company that makes the Red ceremonial uniforms for this coronation called "Coronation Tailors : Fit For a King".

    An interesting watch if you can locate it  🙂
