SS25HCP02 Coronation Carriage
View map
£783.00
This class is part of the RSN International Summer School 2025
Please note this is an onsite class which takes place over five days at Hampton Court Palace from Monday 18 to Friday 22 August 10am - 4pm.
A day will be dedicated to the horse, one day to the footman and the final three days will be spent on the carriage.
The horse will be worked in Silk Shading with a wired silk saddle, kid leather hooves and a loose thread tail and mane. There will also be a suede harness running to the main piece.
The footman will be padded with applied fabric breeches, wired silk tunic with kid leather boots and helmet.
The carriage is worked with layers of applied fabric, both flat to the surface and over padding. There are many forms of padding explored throughout, from felt padding, soft string padding and hard string padding (under wheels).
There are several areas of Or Nué with additional couched details running through other elements of the carriage. There is pearl purl used throughout this piece, several areas of chipping and assorted areas of cutwork and spangled S-ing. The final details are worked in small iridescent crystals and beads.
Overall this class is an ambitious, intermediate to advanced class where Goldwork is explored in detail with many areas of consolidation so techniques can be visited more than once. The Silk Shading and wired silk add extra depth, dimension and technique to this commemorative design based on a photograph taken by the Tutor outside Buckingham Palace on Coronation Day, 6 May 2023.
You can explore many more stitches on the RSN Stitch Bank.
