GUIDE TO BUCKINGHAM PALACE ROYAL COLLECTIONS SHOP
Firstly, take a look at the most popular Royal Collection designs.
These designs are a modern take on the centuries old patterns and motifs found inside the real Buckingham Palace on tableware and household items still in use today by the current residents, the Queen and her extended family.
Hot tip: Check out our popular guide to London Souvenirs here and our guide to best London shopping areas too.
No.1: The Coat of Arms Chinaware
“The Coast of Arms Buckingham Palace tea set is based on a beautiful hand painted plate found in the Royal Pantry at Buckingham Palace.
The design shows the coat of arms of King George IV.
Each piece of English fine bone china is skilfully finished by hand using 22 carat gold, is made in Staffordshire and uses methods unchanged for 250 years.”

I may not have the privilege to meet the Queen, but if this Buckingham Palace gift shop is open for one and all especially, a commoner like me, then I will surely visit it. This gift place is stunning, and all the collections are truly royal.

When I visited the shop on 8th August I saw a necklace in the shop, it was sapphire with diamonds around it, I think the price was just under £50. Do you still have it in stock.
