Dress Clip & Bangle from Anthea A. G. Antiques

This special dress clip and matching bangle was given by H.M Queen Elizabeth (the queen mother) to Lady Hardinge, whose husband, Sir Alexander Hardinge was private secretary to King George VI.

The letter, although undated, was likely to accompany the gift for Christmas in 1942 when the Royal Family was in mourning for the King's brother, Prince George Duke of Kent, killed that year.
