- Cap_of_Maintenance abstract "A Cap of Maintenance is a ceremonial cap of crimson velvet lined with ermine, which is worn or carried by certain persons as a sign of nobility or special honour. It is worn with the high part to the fore, the tapering tail behind. It is often depicted in British heraldry, when it sits atop the usual helm and is blazoned A chapeau gules turned up ermine, and frequently has the family's usual crest on top of it. A Cap of Maintenance is one of the insignia of the British sovereign, and is carried directly before the monarch at the State Opening of Parliament (usually, in recent times, by the Leader of the House of Lords). For their coronation, Kings (including, most recently, George VI) wear the Cap of Maintenance for the journey to Westminster Abbey immediately prior to the service. Queens regnant, on the other hand, have tended to wear an alternative (Elizabeth II wore the George IV State Diadem.) In more general terms, the velvet and ermine lining of a crown (or of the coronet of a peer) is itself sometimes called a 'cap of maintenance', and is technically a separate item to the crown itself. According to the Oxford English Dictionary a Cap of Maintenance was granted by the Pope to both Henry VII and Henry VIII as a mark of special privilege. The origin of this symbol of dignity is obscure. It may have had a purely practical origin being used to help a crown fit more firmly or to protect the head from bare metal on the crown. It is probably connected with the cap of estate or dignity, sometimes also styled Cap of Maintenance, similar in appearance to the above but with two peaks or horns behind, which is borne as a heraldic charge by certain families. (This seems originally to have been a privilege of dukes. Where it is used the crest is placed upon it, instead of on the usual wreath.)".
