Bought for elderly mum who likes to wear a headsquare. Not too thick but nice and warm. Didn't realise dry clean only but hopefully doesn't require washing.

Engraved hip flask
I would highly recommend Donaldsons.
I ordered a 'clan' hip flask from Donaldsons online and could not be happier. Customer service was exemplary. The quality of the flask is excellent. It was a gift for my son who was delighted to receive it.

When my husband Forbes died our…
When my husband Forbes died our grandsons said they'd like to wear Forbes tartan ties as Grandad did, so I ordered four to arrive just in time for the funeral. The word went round and quickly I had a request for a further three . Donaldson's turned up trumps and three more were made, posted 1st class and arrived in time. The boys looked very smart and were pleased to wear "Grandad's" ties. Thank you for polite, very efficient service for a very special occasion.

Hello Kath
Thanks so much for your review. Yes, the mills are constantly weaving and reweaving their tartan cloth and in your case we were fortunate that the cloth became available quicker than we anticipated. We will certainly look out for your next visit to Donaldsons.

Lovely Sgian Dubh as a gift …
Bought a Sgian Dubh as a gift for our son-in-law to be to give him on his wedding day to our daughter. We are Delighted with the detail and quality. Very reasonable priced, great communication. If I had to moan about something it would be the box as the Sgian Dubh was not secure as the elastic that holds it in place in the box was snapped. Thankfully this was something I was able to rectify before gift wrapping it.
