Like other Danish royal monograms, Christian V’s crown is placed above the initial.

Graphic designer Charlotte Søeborg Ohlsen, with assistance from colleagues, Mads Quistgaard and Cecilie Kirkeskov Knudsen, created the monograms for Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine.

Royal Monograms in Denmark

Royal monograms have a long tradition as an identity mark which is both practical and decorative.

Whilst the monarch’s monogram is official, monograms for other members of the Royal Family are for private use.

Monograms can be used on many items, including gifts, stationery and jewellery.

A royal monogram consists of an initial or a double initial under the royal crown.
