to Royal nephew. The hands and feet of George immortalised in silver? Wonder if this was a complete surprise to his parents?

I know Queen Victoria was very fond of having these sculpted from her children - but somehow I did not find them spooky and I do the silver ones.

Your thoughts?

Didn't like them and they cost about £7000 all together. What a waste of money!
