Scepter King William

King Willem's scepter is a black four-piece staff with a red faceted sphere in a gold-colored crown. Men and women grab it when they dress up as king or queen for the day, for example during King's Day or a Dutch evening. The small red crosses on the crown make the top recognizable as a royal attribute.

What parts does King Willem's scepter consist of?

• The set consists of four parts: three straight staff sections and the top with the sphere on it.
• The staff is matte black and has ribbed ends where the sections slide into each other.
• The sphere on top is red and cut with small facets, making it shine like a large gemstone.
• Directly below the sphere is a gold-colored crown with red crosses and a smooth gold ring.
• The scepter comes in transparent packaging with a hanging hook from Funny Fashion.

The scepter as a royal symbol of power

For centuries, a scepter has been part of the royal regalia: the staff represented authority, and the sphere on top represented the realm. In costume form, this image has been reduced to one recognizable combination: the long dark staff with a striking red stone in a crown. This makes it clear at a glance what role someone is playing, even from a distance in a crowded hall. That makes the staff suitable for use by a king or queen, an emperor, or a fairy-tale prince.

How to carry the staff during a parade or party evening

Hold the scepter upright and slightly out in front of you when walking through a parade or a hall, so that the red sphere remains visible above the crowd. With a red or black cloak, the staff's color combination matches perfectly; with gold-colored jewelry and a crown, the crown below the sphere is complemented. If you need to put it down for a while, lay it flat instead of leaning it against a wall, so that the sections do not slide apart. For a children's party with a princess theme, the same staff works as a prop when announcing the birthday child.
