The Crown Jewels: From Royal Relics to Colonial Controversies

from The Proper British History Podcast: Kings, Queens, Wars, Empire, Politics, Revolutions, Royalty and the Historical Great Britain · host Podily

From medieval crowns to modern controversies, we trace the evolution of Britain’s Crown Jewels—how they were made, confiscated, repurposed, and how colonial spoils such as the Koh‑i‑Noor entered royal regalia. We examine theft plots, custodianship, and ongoing debates over rightful ownership. The episode unpacks why these glittering objects matter beyond symbolism. Learn more about your ad choices.
