Catherine Parr Decoration

Inspired by Henry VIII’s sixth wife, Catherine Parr, this decoration would add majestic elegance to any Christmas tree. The highly decorative figure is adorned with gold glass beads, pearl beads and sparkly gold thread to give a regal appearance.
Catherine Parr (1512 – 1548) was Queen of England from 1543 until 1547, as the last of the six wives of King Henry VIII. She married him on 12 July 1543, and outlived him. She was also the most-married English queen, with four husbands, and the first English queen to be titled "Queen of Ireland".
Catherine enjoyed a close relationship with Henry's three children and was personally involved in the education of Elizabeth and Edward, both of whom became English monarchs. She was influential in Henry's passing of the Third Succession Act in 1543 that restored both his daughters, Mary and Elizabeth, to the line of succession to the throne.
Not to be given to children under 36 months.

For 25 years they have worked with a small Christian charity in Thailand that helps disadvantaged rural women find work in their community, rather than being forced to leave home to work in a factory.
