THE King is dressed in symbolic ‘vestments’, and presented with items of Regalia, each a visible reminder of his role and his responsibility to God.
These include:
– The Supertunica: a coat of gold silk reflecting the splendour of Christ.
– The Armills: gold bracelets representing sincerity and wisdom.
– The Sovereign’s Orb symbolising the Christian world.
– The Sovereign’s Sceptre with Dove to represent The King’s spiritual role.
– The Sovereign’s Sceptre with Cross to represent His Majesty’s worldly power.
