After nine design proposals, it took a multitude of the finest seamstresses eight months to create Princess Elizabeth's coronation gown. And when the young Elizabeth revealed it to the world, as she walked down the aisle at Westminster Abby on June 2, 1953, it was a spectacular sight to behold! Made of white satin with a latticework design of seed pearls and crystals, the gown featured short sleeves, a heart-shaped neckline, fitted waist and flared skirt that ended in a slight train. A nearly 21-1/3-foot-long, gold embroidered, purple robe with ermine border and cape added further drama. Now, in honor of that historic occasion and Her Majesty's magnificent coronation gown, The Bradford Exchange exclusively presents the Queen Elizabeth Coronation Sculpture.Towering a stately 12 inches tall, this stunning, limited-edition presentation is masterfully sculpted to perfectly capture Queen Elizabeth's poise and the exquisite beauty of her gown, robe and accessories. Hand-cast of artist's resin and then hand-painted with incredible detail, this magnificent sculpture dazzles with hundreds of individually hand-placed glass mosaic pieces on her flowing gown and cascading robe to create a truly one-of-a-kind masterpiece. Her bejeweled crown, sparkling jewelry and golden sceptre add further shimmer, while a marble-finished base serves as the perfect pedestal for this limited-edition Royal Family collectible. Strong demand is expected, so order now!
