Nathan, that is a very nice looking bonnet badge you got there. I like the craftsmanship.
I wonder about the your standard issue badge, did they miss out an "E" THE instead of THEE ?

It's one of the things that bother me about the standard issue badge actually. On some, the E is there, albeit obscured by the torse, but on this particular one, the detail isn't that good, there's just a blob of pewter behind the torse.
The whole motto is visible and lovely in the new badge. I also like the way they've portrayed the heraldic elements. Fresh looking but consistent.

Interesting.
My family is extremely small and so nobody produces clan badges for it. Not that I often wear a bonnet, I don't, but it would be nice to have a badge to go on it.

Very smart, Nathan! I really like it. I'm actually awaiting the arrival of a Macpherson clansman's badge in sterling silver from Roddy Young (Inverness) at Clan Crest Silver.

I look forward to seeing the finished product. Roddy's cap badges are £160 whereas Celtic Studio's are $160 CAD.
At today's exchange rate, that's $294 CAD plus taxes, duty and shipping for one of Roddy's. That's why I was so glad to find a Canadian supplier.
Cheers,
Nathan

I prefer the look of the new badge, as well. Very nice, congratulations Nathan.
