The royal family have her to thank for the acquisition and preservation of several important pieces of art, antiques and especially jewelry. But her magpie collecting gained her a false reputation as a kleptomaniac. Let’s get to know this important British Queen Consort and find out why her crown is a fitting choice for Camilla.

I will never get over the irony that the Church of England has such strict rules about divorce, when it can easily be argued that the entire denomination was created because Henry VIII wanted to divorce his wife
Reusing a crown would give it a dynastic meaning. It’s better than spending money on a new crown. What makes Queen Mary’s crown better is that it was she who paid for the crown, not the state. It’s also a symbol of a humility and responsibility.
One historical detail that I like about King George and Queen Mary and that some people tend to forget is that they were kings when the Titanic sank. All the royal family attended a memorial service for victims of the sinking back in April 19, 1912, the day after the RMS Carpathia had arrived in New York City with the survivors.
The intro makes me laughts😂. Sad like that it seems as if Camilla is some random person in the streat who stole Mary's crown and posted about it on instagram
A point people are missing is that Queen Mary’s crown was created to be the permanent crown not just for herself, but for all Queens Consort in the future. That came unstuck because Queen Mary was still alive and kicking when her daughter-in-law Elizabeth was to be crowned as the Consort of George VI. The trouble was that the old Queen Mary was going to be present at the Coronation, and expecting to wear ‘her’ crown. Ripping the old girl’s crown off her head to give to her daughter-in-law seemed a bit cruel, so they knocked up a different one for Elizabeth. That particular crown was only meant to be a one-off, just for that one particular Consort. Going back to Queen Mary’s crown is just reverting to Plan A.
Correction- Queen Mary's crown, with its flowing, curving arches, and its date of 1911, is plainly not Art Deco in design. It is Art Nouveau.
Queen Mary’s crown is a great example of noble simplicity. It’s elegant, but not ostentatious.
Art Deco starts after WW1 Queen Mary's crown belongs more to the Art Nouveau/Belle Epoch/Gilded Age
Girl, I'm literally reading Mary's biography now. Excellent timing.
I think it's a shame that they're changing the 8 half arches to 4. It looks so elegant as it is.
Queen Mary was born during Queen Victoria's reign and died during Queen Elizabeth the secound's let that sink in for a moment
Can you make a video about Rajiya Sultan the Queen of Delhi and Rani lakshmi bai the Queen of Jhansi... They were the most fearless warriors who met a tragic end.... I think that their stories deserve to be known...
She chose the crown I hoped she would. I've always thought the 1911 crown was the most attractive of all of the existing consort crowns. The arches are far more elegant than those on the Queen Mother's crown. I'll be looking forward to seeing it on the big day.
Queen Mary's crown is beautiful. I love the noble simplicity of it as well as elegant. I remember reading a biography of her and how she helped save the monarchy in the wake of the Abdication. I found her to be such an amazing woman.
Every time I see a video about this era, I’m so thankful that the world got George instead of Edward. We really dodged a bullet there
It has recently been discovered that Wallis did not want to marry Edward, tried desperately to get out of it, but failed and felt forced to marry him. She realized too late she loved the man she divorced for Edward. Letters in her pen were found stating as much. She even wrote to parliament stating she had no desire to marry the king.
For someone of my age (mid 60's), when I think of Queen Mary, the ship RMS Queen Mary comes to mind. She was still in service until I was 11, and is now in Long Beach, California harbor being used as a hotel and tourist attraction. My mother was English, and my maternal grandfather I believed traveled on the RMS Queen Mary.
I’ve always wondered why the Windsors share a name with a castle, nice to know the backstory now.
Excellent video! Queen Mary is tied with Victoria as my favorite British Royal. She helped save the monarchy in the wake of the Abdication, and following her example is what made her granddaughter such an exemplary Queen. 🇬🇧 👑
Fantastic video! My Mom, who was part Norman English, passed away in December 2022 at age 94. She fondly remembered Queen Mary of Teck! We both used to share stories of Queen Mary’s grit and frankness! Queen Elizabeth was blessed to have her as a role model an Grandmother!
