King George V 1911-1936

George V (George Frederick Ernest Albert; 3 June 1865 – 20 January 1936) was King of the United Kingdom and Emperor of India, from 6 May 1910 until his death in 1936. George V was born 3rd inline to the throne behind his father Prince Albert Edward (King Edward VII), and elder brother Prince Albert Victor. Eddy (Prince Albert Victor) as referred to by later biographers died in 1892 just 28yrs old falling prey to the influenza pandemic of 1889-1892. His short life was not without scandal having been named by male prostitutes under interrogation in 1889.

In 1917 George V became the first monarch of the House of Windsor, which he renamed from the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha as a result of anti-German public sentiment. George V's reign saw the rise of socialism and the Labour movement which would radically change the political landscape.

Pretty little shelves that work well
These shelves are made with real wood and are great quality. The scalloped edges are so pretty and they were easy to install with the tool kit provided. I can fit a good amount of books and some small toys if I want to. These shelves function well for their intended purpose. The instructions were simple and easy to follow as well.

High-Quality Pine Shelves With Beauty, Strength & Endless Possibilities!
The aroma of real pine wood greeted me immediately, that natural, clean scent you only get from solid wood. The craftsmanship is excellent, with beautiful grain patterns and a smooth scalloped edge that adds both charm and safety. Although they’re advertised for a nursery, their versatility is what won me over. I’m painting one white to match my kitchen and use it for spices, another in black for my bedroom to display a few of my art pieces, and two will be going into my craft room. They’re sturdy and spacious and look great...the shelf itself is not small it's almost 4 inches wide, that's 4 inches to place what ever you'd like on and a full 24 inches across! For this price point, you would normally expect particleboard, not premium solid wood. These are built to last, and you can feel the difference instantly. If you're choosing between something inexpensive and something natural and durable, go with the real wood. You’ll be happy you did.

These elegant pine shelves are made from beautiful wood that has an elegantgant finish
Beautiful pine wood and a smooth finish are the hallmark features of the 4 floating shelves with wood hooks. Although the shelves were designed for a nursery or toddler’s room;?it is going to look beautiful in my bedroom. The scalloped edges give it a touch of elegance. The wooden hangers are perfect for hanging, necklaces or scarves just to name a few items. The shelves are a perfect size to place perfume bottles and/or pictures. Mostly I want to put the many keepsakes items I have that I just never found a good place to display them. This will put many of my keepsakes in one location and it will be easy to see and enjoy them. I only opened one of the packages for pictures. I’m waiting for them to be installed and I didn’t want to lose any of the small parts.

Very nice shelves they look great up and were easy to install. Same color shown in picture. They seem very sturdy on the wall and I love the look of them. They are light weight and a good size just a little plunder 40 inches. Good quality for the price. I'll be buying again.
