Manage episode 409889281 series 2859672
We’re back with a very special bonus episode of our Royal Regalia: A History of Splendour series after a listener request for an episode on the crown jewels of Sweden.
Sweden’s Kingdom has a history spanning over 1000 years. The protected jewel collection features some of the most impressive parures and tiaras you’ll ever see, including a bejeweled, cowboy-esque crown.
Matthew and Alyce dive into the country’s unique, multinational history and trace back the origins of some of their spectacular pieces. They also share their favourites of the collection, highlighting beautiful detailed cameos and an incredible rare gemstone.
THINGS WE SPOKE ABOUT
- Sweden’s multinational royal history
- How Sweden came to have a French family name on the throne
- The establishment of the Swedish ‘fideikomiss’ to protect their jewels
- A bejeweled cowboy hat fit for future kings and queens
- Unique collection pieces including detailed cameos and unusual gemstones

QUOTES
The connections in the Swedish Royal Family to the Danish, the British, the Norwegian, I mean, their family trees read like a bowl of spaghetti. - Alyce Ketcher
The whole point was that these jewels that were left in this collection had to stay within the family. Whoever inherited them had to pass them on to the next one, you couldn't do anything with them. So they were kind of yours, but they had to stay as property of the Swedish crown. - Matthew Weldon
One thing that I really love about the about Scandinavia royal families, the Scandies, they're not afraid to wear a good tiara. - Alyce Ketcher
