Celebrate the Coronation of King Charles III with these commemorative gifts and keepsakes.

With the Coronation of King Charles III taking place on Saturday 6th May 2023, high street stores including John Lewis, Marks & Spencer and Fortnum & Mason are marking the occasion with a range of Coronation gifts and homewares, from limited-edition commemorative pottery (ideal for passing on to future generations) to edible treats like hampers.

In fact, John Lewis has revealed that searches for Coronation products on its website are up more than 260 per cent in the last week, whilst sales of Coronation mugs are up 123 per cent week-on-week. Interestingly, John Lewis' Coronation Lewis Bear is the retailer's best-selling edition since the bear was first produced in 2005. In fact, it's so popular that it's already sold out online and there is now a customer limit of two per household across both Waitrose and John Lewis shops.

If you're planning to celebrate King Charles' Coronation and you're looking for souvenirs, whether it's quintessentially British gifts or future heirlooms that can become treasured possessions for years to come, here's a round-up of the Coronation gifts worth buying...

These mini trinket tins – ideal for jewellery, small sweets and everything in between – make wonderful gifts. Better still, each tin can be engraved to make it truly unique. Choose from five different templates.

Emblazoned with regal crown patterns and the words 'hip hip hooray', this mug will look delightful on your dining table and in your display cabinet.

Made from 100 per cent recycled board, this special collector's edition (a 1,000 piece montage puzzle) portrays the tradition and grandeur of the Coronation ceremony. Bring this out post-afternoon tea for a relaxing way to unwind.

This laser cut acrylic medal is a lovely way to commemorate King Charles' Coronation. The medal, adorned with the official emblem, is supplied with a red satin ribbon. It's attached to a textured card which includes a name and age, making it a lovely keepsake.

A new creation from Gin In A Tin, and made in collaboration with Historic Royal Palaces, is this aptly named Coronation Gin.

It's described as a smooth crisp gin with juniper at the forefront, with citrus notes of lemon and orange, finished with subtle notes of cardamom.

M&S has launched a 14-stem floral arrangement to celebrate the Coronation of His Majesty King Charles III. Inspired by the red, white and blue of the Union Jack, this bouquet includes a vibrant selection of delphinium, peony, stock and greenbell, plus the aptly named Coronation Rose, grown and bred exclusively for M&S. You can also buy Coronation bud vases if you prefer.

Fortnum & Mason's elegant cotton tea towel – decorated in its signature Eau de Nil colour – features 13 crowns, which is a reference to F&M's service to each of the 13 monarchs of Great Britain since 1707, the year of its foundation.

With a webbed handle, this 100 per cent cotton commemorative tote bag is strong as well as spacious. This reusable bag is also available to buy at Waitrose.

What more could you want as you settle in to watch the Coronation from the comfort of your home? This mini gift box includes yummy Coronation macarons and a mini bottle of Prosecco.

This limited-edition earthenware plate from Spode displays a traditional coat of arms and is complemented by a regal royal blue floral border.

This gorgeous A4 print celebrates King Charles III's favourite flower, the delphinium, depicted in the shape of a crown. The print comes with gold ink lettering, hand-signed and numbered and with a Limited Edition print certificate. Place it in a photo frame and prop it up on a desk or shelving unit.

This celebratory Coronation bouquet features striking fragrant purple blooms (including irises and stocks) mixed with yellow and orange bi-coloured tulips. The gift set is complete with English breakfast tea and all butter shortbread, both in collectable commemorative tins.

Exclusive to F&M and handcrafted from fine bone china, this bauble is handmade by talented artisans in the heart of the English Potteries. The tapestry design combines tea leaves from the camellia sinensis plant with elements from the Royal Oak tree, a symbol of the British monarchy dating back to the 17th century. It's monogrammed with the date of the King's Coronation.

Here, a traditional design has been brought into the 21st century with stylised shapes and a muted colour palette. The foliage reflects Charles' love of nature and gardening, while the bees depict his passion for collecting honey on his country estate.

This pure cotton throw truly captures the patriotic spirit with an all-over Union Jack print. It's given a playful, feminine touch with floral patterns and multicoloured fringe edges.

This luxury 100 per cent organic cotton tea towel is bustling with Royal-themed features, from St. Edward's Crown to icons showing King Charles' passion for the outdoors and music.

You can't go wrong with a chocolate gift. Beautifully presented in a mini box, inside you'll find six crown-shaped organic milk chocolates, filled with a hazelnut praline centre.

This stylish recycled cotton tote bag is in honour of the late Queen Elizabeth II. 'This commemorative tote bag pays respect to her memory through the embroidered years of her life, as well as a crown surrounded by an elegant wreath,' say Harrods.
