It took the team at Victoria Carpets in Kidderminster more than 16 painstaking hours and 3,000 pieces of carpet to complete, as they put together a mammoth portrait of the royal to mark the coronation.

Staff from the carpet manufacturers utilised 3cm squares of carpet to put together the mosaic, which comes in at more than four metres.

But this isn’t the only connection the company have with the royals, having previously been awarded a Royal Warrant after supplying the red carpet for the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton in 2013.

The team used some of this same carpet from their archive to create the image of the monarch’s ceremonial uniform which is featured in the portrait.
