All of these were given to couples in Marlow and district:
Umbrella handle in chrystal and gold (just the handle)
First aid kit
White ostrich feather
Electric torch
Case for telegraph forms (this was a common gift)
Embroidered doyleys
Book of "ancient poems"
Silver canoe model
Danish china fish
Copy of the book Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens (probably quite valuable now!)
Pair of carved brackets
Set of hall brushes
Brass trivets
Sunshade
Chauffrette (foot warmer, or bed warmer). Ok, this was a useful gift. The name just baffled me at first.
