Fortnum & Mason has launched its Coronation Collection, filled with an array of extraordinary things to eat, drink and keep to mark this historic occasion. The new collection is filled with pieces inspired by not only British history, but King Charles III himself.

The packaging is specifically inspired by previous iconography of royal pageants and ceremonies through the centuries and features a rich palette of regal colours, heraldic motifs, iconic typography, and a cast of gentle animals from the Commonwealth and beyond! Fortnum's worked with three artists to create both the designs and the packaging for each piece in the range — meaning whether you opt for a biscuit tin or a commemorative plate — each piece can be a treasured keepsake.
The aim of the collection is to create products that will allow everyone to celebrate this momentous occasion, whether that be through decorating their home in gorgeous coronation decorations or enjoying some delicious food and drink.
If you're looking for the perfect afternoon tea to celebrate, there is no better way to toast the coronation than over a freshly brewed pot of tea in Fortnum's coronation teaware.
Fortnum & Mason Fortnum's Coronation Teapot
This coronation teapot has a distinctive shape that is inspired by teapots that would have been seen during the year His Majesty was born.
To finish off your tea set, why not buy the coronation teacup and saucer, which is made from matching fine bone china, too.
