The "Pearly King and Queen" dates back to Queen Victoria. Legend has it, that she was truly a Queen of all the people and the welfare of all her people rich and poor was never far from her mind. When she was told by the various members of her councils that all was well, she took Benjamin Disraeli aside and told him she wanted to hear from the poor themselves as to what their complaints were. She directed him to have the poor elect a man and a woman to come and speak to her. When the people elected the 2 people, in order to meet the Queen, they made a suit for the man inlaid with costume jewelry pearl buttons and a gown for the woman also inlaid with costume jewelry pearl buttons. They were then presented to the Queen as the elected representatives of the poor of England. Legend has it, that when they entered her chamber, she rose and bowed slightly in recognition of the suffering they represented. Each year a new king and queen is elected and presented to the Monarch, all of whom are representing the poor.
