About 1 oz Tudor Beast Lion

The inspiration behind the Royal Tudor Beasts collection comes from the ten stone beasts that line the Moat Bridge at Hampton court palace. They are the symbols of Henry VIII’s union with his third wife Jane Seymour.The yale became known as a Beaufort beast and was used by Henry VIII to emphasise his family connection to the Beauforts – a powerful royal family from the House of Lancaster – and add credibility to his claim to the throne.
