Collar of the Maestrante of Saint Charles

The Collar of the Maestrante of Saint Charles is unquestionable masterpiece of goldsmithing and an indisputable symbol of the strength of the Corps of the Nobility of Cantabria. As the highest award of our Corps is usually reserved for members of the High Nobility, princes "iure sanguini", or High Dignities, it was instituted in honor of Blessed Charles of Austria, for whose canonization we pray.
