A piece of cake from the 1981 wedding of Lady Diana Spencer and Charles Prince of Wales in presentation box and doyley-wrapped.
The white box lid is decorated with intertwined initials in silver, C and D, under the Prince of Wales feathers and over the location and date “Buckingham Palace, 29th July 1981”.
A card inside reads “With best wishes from Their Royal Highnesses The Prince & Princess of Wales”.
The royal wedding cake was made by Dave Avery at the Royal Navy Cookery School. It is a traditional fruitcake with cream-cheese frosting.
Pieces of cake from the wedding of Charles and Diana were given to tenant farmers of Charles’ Duchy of Cornwall estates. This is one of those pieces, supplied directly from the child of one of the farmers.
The wedding of Charles and Diana was one of the defining events of its era and the modern Royal Family. A television audience of around 750 million people watched an event that was the epitome of romance and pageantry.
Diana was to become among the most visible public figures of the 20th century before her death in 1997. Charles is now Charles III.
An unusual and touching remnant of one of the greatest days in modern British royal history.
