A SET OF SIX EDWARDIAN TABLE CANDLESTICKS BRADBURY & SONS, LONDON 1908 each in the George III style of baluster form, with knopped stem to a moulded quatrefoil base, with engraved Crest for the Order of the Thistle (35cm high (loaded)) Footnote: Note: The Most Ancient and Most Noble Order of the Thistle was first established in Scotland by King James VII of Scotland (II of England) in 1678, a re-establishment of a much older order. The true history of the earlier establishment of the Order is lost in history but some, spurious, histories suggest it was started as early as the 8th century. King James bestowed the Order on Prince Charles Edward Stuart as the first Royal member and his pride in this award was obvious. Many of the most iconic and recognizable portraits commissioned by the Stuart's feature Charles wearing his garter badge. The Order's primary emblem is the thistle, the national flower of Scotland. The motto is Nemo me impune lacessit (Latin for "No one provokes me with impunity")
