No one is 100% sure about the earliest celebration of Valentine’s but there are a few stories that may explain it. Many believe that Valentine’s Day can be traced back to a Roman fertility festival known as Lupercalia. Some think it marks the death of Saint Valentine, who died on February 14th. Another story is that Emperor Claudius banned all marriages and engagements in Rome and Valentine realised the injustice and continued to marry young lovers in private. When Claudius found out he ordered Valentine to be killed, hence the evolution of Valentine’s Day. There are many similar stories but today it is celebrated in many cultures as a day of love and romance.

I am absolutely delighted with my footstool. The quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail are outstanding, and it is clear that great care has gone into its construction. Although there was a waiting period (bespoke item) it was more than worth it. The finished product exceeded my expectations and has become a beautiful addition to my home. The service throughout was excellent, and communication was always friendly and professional. It is refreshing to find a business that takes such pride in both its products and customer service. I would not hesitate to recommend them and wish the business every continued success for the future. Thank you for creating such a lovely piece.

Lots of selection and easy to order. There was a delay due to lack of tartan material, which is fine but I had to ask the question. This was answered promptly but would suggest that company could inform customer.
