This Royal Family diamond and enamel order of King George IV will be offered for the first time ever at auction and was the first order ever created by a British Monarch. Decorated at the centre with an enamel portrait miniature of King George IV when Prince Regent by Henry Bone, framed with single-cut diamonds, within a rose diamond wreath mounted in yellow gold, further embellished with circular-cut diamonds, the Royal Crown surmount applied with red enamel set with circular-, single-cut and rose diamonds, the reverse enhanced with a rose diamond monogram GR IV for Georgius Rex IV, surmounted by a similarly designed Royal Crown.

I had the privilege of collaborating with the Sotheby’s Video Team as an Associate Producer to make this video.
