Monaco Orders & Monograms

Isn't that their joint coat of arms?

Yes it are the Arms of Hannover and Monaco joint together but it seems a fantasy arms to me because the Arms of Monaco is flanked by monks and not by an unicorn (picture).

For "the wife of" often an oval shield is designed:
Lilian, the wife of Bertil of Sweden:(picture)
Máxima, the wife of Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands: (picture)

A born royal lady is often recognizeable by a lozenge shield:
Anne, The Princess Royal: (picture)
Princess Juliana of the Netherlands: (picture)

Thanks for the above - interesting. The coat of arms are very similar. What do the blue shields represent - their own ancestors ( I'm guessing German here for P Charlene) maybe?
 
I love Princess Charlene's Arms. I had never seen them before.

Thank you An Ard Ri.?
 
Me too, I never saw the Princess Charlene's Arms
I am not surprise because an uncle of the P Charlene has a page on Facebook called ' the Wittstock family tree' , it is the story of the family of Charlene , and there is already the same arms on the page

:previous: Wow...very impressive and beautiful!

I wonder if it's been in the family for generations or did they just have one made after Charlene became Princess of Monaco?

I'm disappointed by this. More than i should be, admittedly. I just can't deal with any Monaco-related coat of arms having the monks with swords replaced. That's just unacceptable. :whistling:
 
Is the Order of the Crown/Ordre de la Couronne awarded anymore?
Princess Benedikte of Denmark was awarded in the past.
