The mosaic egg with the children's images inside is precious and beautiful. Unfortunate deaths but pieces like this keep them in memory.

[@nette4307]

Most of the Russian populace were starving, and the zar commissioned a faberge egg - setting the stage for his own demise as well as that of his wife and children. Not sure it was "unfortunate" = it was, however, logical.

[@swissuz]

Horrific deaths. The Faberge Egg was made before they were executed so mercilessly....children! As they stared at their executioners...totally cold blooded. They were distantly related to the British Royal family.

[@fourthgirl]

Yes the memory of QEII's grandparents denying the Tsar's request for safe passage to England for his family. Way to go cousin! At least the egg made it out safe.😑

Buckingham palace is owned by the crown estates. It is not personally or privately owned. The royal family are charged with maintaining it in cooperation with the state as it is state property. That is why the monarchy has to use public funds to renovate the palace. That is also why King Charles wants once the renovations are complete, he plans to open up more of the palace to the public for longer periods of time. Buckingham palace is a part of the history of Great Britain’s culture. Nearly every tourist that goes to England makes plans to see or tour the palace. It is one of the draws that brings in tourist dollars that supports Britains economy. It is one of the most impressive important palaces in the world. It is like a huge museum of British history.

The Palace belongs to the State not the Royal family. The dear Queen DIDNT live in it for three years before her sad death and due to an on going renovation Charles wont be living there either ,it’s said it will be another7 years before it’s complete. Of course the state rooms and balcony are used for big occasions but Charles lives at Clarence House which was left to him by the Queen Mother in 2002. The gardens and finished rooms along with the Queens gallery are open to the General Public.

[@littleannie390]

The Queen Mother didn’t leave Charles Clarence House as it is part of the Crown Estate. The Queen lived there with Prince Philip after her marriage, before she became Queen and moved to Buckingham Palace. The Queen Mother took over the tenancy after the death of her husband.

Buckingham Palace, like Windsor Castle, is owned by the reigning monarch in right of the Crown. This means that Queen owned the palace in her capacity as sovereign and that, unlike those residences which she owned in a personal capacity - like Balmoral and Sandringham - ownership of Buckingham Palace passed automatically to King Charles upon the Queen’s death; she could not have left it to anyone else, even if she had wished to do so.
