EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming pair of Coronation hair clips, produced in 1953 to commemorate the historic event of Queen Elizabeth II's coronation, exudes an air of regal elegance and patriotic pride. The clips feature a small, intricately detailed crown on each one, symbolizing the monarch's authority and sovereignty. The youthful image of Princess Elizabeth, who would soon ascend to the throne, graces the packaging, adding a personal touch to these commemorative accessories. The Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, held on June 2, 1953, was a grand and spectacular occasion that marked the official beginning of her reign. The event brought the British people together in a display of unity and national pride, making these hair clips a cherished keepsake for those who wanted to honor the momentous occasion. The design of the clips, with their retro aesthetic and kitsch appeal, is reminiscent of the 1950s, a decade defined by its love for all things royal and patriotic. The use of the Union Jack flag on the packaging further emphasizes the patriotic sentiment, adding to the overall charm of these commemorative accessories. These regal hair clips, with their small crowns and evocative imagery, offer a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the coronation of a monarch was a cause for national celebration and pride. A true piece of memorabilia from an era long gone, these hair clips are a must-have for anyone with an appreciation for royal history and retro fashion.
