Gillis Mowbray

Gillis Mowbray or Gilles Moubray was a servant of Mary, Queen of Scots, associated with a small collection of jewellery held by the National Museums of Scotland, known as the "Penicuik jewels".

[3] Gillis Mowbray travelled to London in 1585, hoping for permission to join her sister Barbara in Mary's household.

[5] Barbara Mowbray married Gilbert Curle, one of the secretaries of Mary, Queen of Scots at Tutbury Castle in October.

She said that Gillis Mowbray had told her that James VI had sent a rich jewel to a Danish princess, a token of marriage negotiations.

[26][27] A crucifix and rosary with filigree beads, associated by tradition with Mary, was in the collection of a Newcastle antiquary, George Mennell, in the 19th century.

[31] In 1577, Mary's secretary Claude Nau asked his brother in Paris to buy bracelets made in the latest fashion.
