Colors

King's Life Guard Colors
A rose and crown, the crown gold with white silver pearls, the Tudor rose white silver in the middle and the outward leaves shadowed with silver, all on a red field with the St. George canton on the whole leftmost third of the field. Gold bullion tassels and cords of 2' length. Each Captain's company (1st-7th) has 1 rose and crown per number of the company. Note that the Colonel's, Lt-Colonel's and Major's colours have other heraldic royal devices instead of the rose and crown.
