King Edward VII, born in 1841, was the eldest son of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. Known as "Bertie" to his family, he became the Prince of Wales at a young age but waited nearly 60 years to ascend the throne, as his mother reigned for an unprecedented 63 years. Edward became king in 1901, following Queen Victoria's death, and reigned until his own passing in 1910. Edward’s era, known as the Edwardian Era, was marked by social and technological advancements. His love for travel and diplomacy earned him the nickname "Peacemaker," as he helped strengthen Britain’s alliances in Europe. Edward VII modernized the British monarchy by embracing a more public role, focusing on international relations, and setting a standard for the social elite. Known for his charm and love of luxury, Edward brought a lively, modern spirit to the throne, influencing British society in both style and cultural openness. His brief but impactful reign laid the groundwork for the 20th-century monarchy and the British royal family’s role in global diplomacy. Whether displayed as a remarkable historical treasure or used as an upscale decor accent, this document folder offers a tangible link to the regal history of the United Kingdom.
