    That is one nice kilt pin. Very sweet of your wife. I'll have to drop some hints for my wife for my next birthday.

    Derek,

    That is one very nice kilt pin. I hate to tell you this [;)] but I have one like it that I bought when in Edinburgh last year - in fact, I have two, the second one being in bronze which I wear on my 8yd camouflage kilt from KiltStore.net ........


    These are among the heaviest pins I have and both have often been admired.

    Thanks for this, both the "silver" and the "bronze" finishes. I've been looking for a substantial pin, this might fill the bill.

    Easy peasy... surround your image's URL with IMG tags.

    That looks like a great pin, Ham, thanks for showing it to us--I've been looking for a suitable bronze brooch or pin like that as just the thing to wear on my own camouflage, olive, and khaki utility kilts. Most pins are either the wrong color (silver or pewter) or just too fancy or delicate for casual kilts.

    Some might say no such jewelry is needed on a casual kilt but I think it gives a nice touch.

    I also have this kiltpin, it's from the "Wallace Collection" all very nice kiltpins, big and heavy.



    -The Thistle "Wallace" attached to my Caladonia.
    -The Rampant Lion "Wallace" reserved for the Tartan of Holland (6655) kilt. The rampant lion is conveniently also our national symbol.
    -The Celtic "Wallace" reserved for my Isle of Skye kilt (on order).
    -The Thistle on the right came with my kilt...and will probably not go into action.
