Gold Crowns For Little Princesses
I mentioned in one of my posts that I was going to hit the Gift Shop at the Royal Palace Stockholm basically as soon as I landed in Sweden. And I only had one purchase in mind. I should have known my readers better! I immediately got a couple of comments and a few e-mails with you guessing – and you guessing right about my mission.
Yes, it was the little crown charm I was after! It is modeled after the Royal Crown for Sweden made for the coronation of Erik XIV in 1561. The one I picked is made of 18K gold. They also offer one in silver as well as one in gold over silver.
I find these well made charms to be so adorable and I can’t wait to give them to my young daughters for their upcoming birthdays, with the hope that they will always think of Sweden and its wonderful history with great love and appreciation.

Oh I guessed right. There are so many lovely things in that gift shop that it really could have been anything but when it comes to little girls this crown charm is perfect. I am sure they will love it!

They don’t have an on-line store. But I am sure that they ship… Good time when the dollar buys us more in Sweden!

I KNEW it!!! Ilove them!!
My girls are now 26 and 28 soon and still love them, but they are now in their jewelry box until their daughters arrive. One can always hope!!!
They wore them with pride for every birthdayparty invite when small, however at this age, they might perhaps be a bit presumptious and a bit threatening haha, to some guys when dating…..!!!

The charms are beautiful, just as described. I hope to someday visit your lovely city and get some for my own little girls.
