Item Description
A highly attractive pair of Sterling Silver Stud Earrings and Pendant from Scottish jeweler Hamilton & Young, with a design based on the romantic and tragic life of Mary Queen of Scots. Mary spent her formative years at the French Court, then the richest and most opulent in the western world. She was betrothed to the Dauphine (Crown Prince) of France, Francis, and married him, aged only 15, in a glittering ceremony in Notre Dame Cathedral. She is described as… ‘a hundred times more beautiful than a goddess of heaven …her person alone was worth a kingdom". The following year, aged 16, Mary's husband ascends the throne of France and Mary becomes Queen of France (as well as Queen of Scotland).
To honour this hugely important period of her life, these stunning stud earrings features the Fleur De Lis, the emblem particularly associated with the French monarchy, enhanced with a genuine drop pearl. These beautiful earrings will delight lovers of all things Scottish, and the romantic and tragic tale that was Mary Queen of Scots, and will make an ideal gift and a lasting momento for yourself or someone you love. Crafted entirely of 925 sterling silver, they are despatched to you, direct from Scotland in an attractive black and gold gift box.
