Household Cavalry King's Crown Cap Badge Display Frame
Official MOD-Licensed Military Heritage Display Piece
Celebrate the proud heritage of the Household Cavalry with this officially licensed Household Cavalry King's Crown Cap Badge Display Frame.
The Household Cavalry is the British Army's most senior corps, comprising The Life Guards and The Blues and Royals (Royal Horse Guards and 1st Dragoons). Tracing its origins to 1660, when King Charles II raised the first troops of the Life Guards following the Restoration, the Household Cavalry has served continuously as the Sovereign's Mounted Bodyguard while maintaining an operational role on campaigns around the world. Today, its soldiers serve within both the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment, carrying out State Ceremonial and public duties as part of the Household Division, and the Household Cavalry Regiment, providing specialist armoured reconnaissance capabilities as part of the Royal Armoured Corps.
Beautifully presented in a premium deep shadow box frame, this display features a precision high-definition reproduction of the Household Cavalry King's Crown Cap Badge, mounted against a hand made military regimental coloured frame backing to create a lasting tribute to the British Army's most senior corps.

About the Badge
The Household Cavalry King's Crown Cap Badge features the Royal Cypher CIIIR of His Majesty King Charles III, enclosed within the Most Noble Order of the Garter bearing the historic motto Honi Soit Qui Mal Y Pense ("Shame on him who thinks evil of it"). The badge is surmounted by the King's Crown (St Edward's Crown), identifying this as the pattern worn from the accession of His Majesty King Charles III. Together, these elements symbolise the Household Cavalry's enduring loyalty and direct service to the Sovereign.
Worn by members of both The Life Guards and The Blues and Royals, the cap badge represents the Household Cavalry's unique dual role within the British Army. While preserving centuries of ceremonial tradition through duties such as Changing the Guard, Trooping the Colour and State Visits, the Household Cavalry continues to serve on modern operations as the British Army's specialist armoured reconnaissance force, combining historic tradition with contemporary military capability.
