✨ The launch of 'Icons of Scotland' 💎

As part of our Aberdeenshire Presidential Initiative, we're delighted to welcome Jamieson & Carry to this year's Royal Highland Show.

Founded in Aberdeen in 1733, the family-owned jeweller will be showcasing its new Icons of Scotland collection within the Presidential Initiative marquee. Designed and handcrafted in Aberdeen, the collection draws inspiration from Scotland's wildlife, landscapes and rural heritage, featuring themes including the red squirrel, red deer, highland cow, otter, seal and barley.

It's a wonderful example of the creativity, craftsmanship and heritage that Aberdeenshire has to offer.
