The Luckenbooth

Heart-shaped brooches, in vogue in the 1700s, were traditionally exchanged between lovers at betrothal. They were subsequently pinned to a baby’s shawl to protect the child from evil spirits. The name comes from their sales in the Luckenbooths (locked booths) around St. Giles Cathedral on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh.
