Armills and Spurs
Links to the Royal Collection for the Armills and the Spurs
" The wording of the ceremony refers to the 'bracelets of sincerity and wisdom' and the Armills are thought to relate to ancient symbols of knighthood and military leadership and they are still presented to the Sovereign. "
" The spurs are representative of knighthood .... Traditionally the spurs were fastened to the sovereign's feet but since the Restoration they have simply been held to the ankles of kings "
