    New Breton Waist-Plate

    As mentioned elsewhere, I recently took delivery of my third Breton tartan kilt, the 'Bro-Leon' - one of the nine regional tartans with in the Breton (Brittany) peninsula of France.

    When placing my order for the kilt with 'La Maison du Kilt' in Paris, I requested also another of the beautiful solid pewter 'Hermine' kilt pins and a matching waist-plate for my Dress belt. These both arrived a few days ago and, in my opinion, they are truly beautiful. What do you think?

    Excellent. It's rare to see a buckle and matching kilt pin.
