    It looks like the coronation of Edward VII and his wife Alexandra as King and Queen 1902.

    Most likely to date to time of coronation. Would have been a commemorative item.

    Somebody from the UK would know more, but I believe that British coronation items have been popular and I imagine they may have been displayed in people's homes.
