EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite silver wedding card commemorates the anniversary of the marriage of His Majesty King William II of Wurttemberg and Her Royal Highness Princess Charlotte of Schaumburg-Lippe, celebrated in 1911. King William II, the fourth monarch of Wurttemberg, ascended the throne on October 6, 1891, and ruled until the abolition of the monarchy on November 30, 1918. His reign was marked by modernization and efforts to strengthen the kingdom's position in the face of political and social changes. The card features a beautiful inset portrait of the royal couple, with King William II depicted in regal attire and Princess Charlotte in an elegant gown adorned with intricate floral patterns. The portraits are framed in oval shapes, adding a classic and timeless touch to the design. The card's border is adorned with delicate floral motifs and the date of the anniversary, "1911," is prominently displayed. The card's simple yet elegant design reflects the refined taste of the royal court and the significance of the occasion. King William II and Princess Charlotte were married on October 17, 1891, in a grand ceremony held in Stuttgart. Their union was a significant one, as Princess Charlotte was the first German princess to marry a reigning German prince without a dowry. The couple had five children together, including the future King Albert II of Wurttemberg. Their silver wedding anniversary was a time for celebration and reflection on the longevity and strength of their marriage, as well as their contributions to the kingdom of Wurttemberg.
