In the 1980's an interesting and attractive addition to the Decanter family was made with the white porcelain Royal Wedding Decanter, to commemorate the marriage of Prince Charles and Lady Diana in 1981. This limited edition Decanter was so popular that all stock was sold within months, with a large proportion going overseas. Since then, Bell's have continued the tradition of commemorating special occasions in the lives of our Royal Family, with "limited edition" Decanters. These Royal Decanters, in their striking white colouring, are prestigious additions to the range and are in keeping with the quality and tradition of their predecessors.

Bell's also produced a new Bell's Royal Decanter to commemorate the Golden Wedding Anniversary of The Queen and The Duke Of Edinburgh on the 20 November 1997. Once again this was produced in white with a royal blue shoulder, hand finished with 24 carat gold. This new Royal Decanter depicted the young couple formally dressed in royal regalia in 1947 on the one side, and on the other dressed informally, and looking much more relaxed 50 years later in 1997. This was the first Royal Decanter to contain Bell's 8 Year Old Scotch Whisky and was in a royal blue presentation box repeating the photographs on the Decanter inside.

Up until The Queen's Golden Wedding Anniversary Decanter, which is in the new 70cl size in line with changed EEC legislation, all the Royal Decanters, except Prince William and Prince Henry Decanters which were both 50cl, were produced in the 75cl size.
