Provenance: The makers have kindly confirmed that this pair of guns was ordered in July 1908 by Rt. Hon. Lord Marchamley for Stanley Wyndham Jamieson Esq.
Stanley Wyndham Jamieson (1885 - 1970) married Hon. Muriel Cartmel Whiteley, daughter of George Whiteley, 1st Baron Marchamley on 30th April 1908, so it seems reasonable to assume that this pair was ordered as a wedding gift
