Aneata designed and hand forged a pair of Cotswold Mice napkin rings in silver, and sent the first set as a gift to
TRH The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge to celebrate the birth of their daughter, HRH Princess Charlotte.
Aneata and Emily wrote The Tale of the Cotswold Mice, with Aneata providing the illustrations of her beloved mice.
The story tells the tale of two little mice that lived in Aneata's workshop. They dreamed of seeing a real palace one day.
With the help of a magic book...were their dreams about to come true?
The silver napkin rings and the first book off the print run were sent to TRH of Cambridge.
The Christmas Tale of the Cotswold Mice is the second in the series, available now
