Abstract
At National Museums Scotland we have a small but stellar collection of Renaissance jewellery associated with Scotland in the sixteenth century. Highlights of this collection include the pearl- encrusted gold locket and fillgree bead necklace of the Penicuk Jewels, associated with Mary, Queen of Scots, and the finely enamelled Fettercairn Jewel. The later was acquired in 2017, with the generous support of the Heritage Lottery Fund and the Art Fund, as well as the National Museums Scotland Charitable Trust.
