Royal Family Order of Charles III

The Royal Family Order depicts the King wearing the ceremonial day uniform of a Royal Navy Admiral of the Fleet with the collar of the Order of the Garter, the Royal Victorian Chain, the riband of the Royal Victorian Order, the badges of the Order of the Bath and Order of Merit and medals.

The miniature, painted by Elizabeth Meek based on a photograph by Hugo Burnand, is in oil on polymin, a synthetic replacement for the ivory used in previous royal family orders.^[2] The miniature is bordered by loose diamonds from the royal collection and surmounted by a Tudor Crown in diamonds and enamel in a yellow-gold frame. The enamelwork was done by Fiona Rae, a jeweller who began her business with a loan from the Prince's Trust. The reverse depicts the King's cypher in gold. The goldwork was engineered by Seth Kennedy, a scholar from the Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust.^[3] The watered silk ribbon is pale blue, is formed into a bow and is made by Philip Treacy; the colour of the ribbon is based on that of George V.^[2]

It was worn for the first time by Queen Camilla at a state banquet in honour of Emperor Naruhito, and his wife, of Japan on 25 June 2024.^[4] It is worn pinned to the dress of the recipient on the left shoulder.^[5]
