My mother presented it pinned to my wives tartan sash during our wedding ceremony. And now in about 4 months my wife and I will be wrapping our son for the first time held together with this new family heirloom. Charles Taylor 17/04/2013

I purchased this stunning brooch at short notice for my daughter as a special presentation at her wedding.
It looked magnificent pinned to her honeymoon dress and hopefully will in time become a part of her family heritage.
As always, the service and prompt despatch by Scotweb ensured it was received in time and safely.
Thank you again.Andrew S 01/08/2011 - From Scotweb
