That is one awesome and classy looking pin you have there Ham, simply beautiful. But then again I wouldn't expect anything less from you.

Thank you Robin - I was trying to find the Breton flag to show the origin of the pin's design, but you beat me to it. Well done!

The pin is so much nicer in reality than the photo indicates.

Ham,

Now I'm really worried about you. Your poor house is going to explode around you with all the kilts and accessories that you have tucked away in there. :rolleyes:

Tell you what....I'll send you a PM with my address and you can just send all your extras over here. Not sure where I'll put it but I'd sleep better at night knowing that you are not in danger of an overloaded house. You can send the Breton kilt pin of course. I'll promise to make sure it's comfortable here.

That's a great looking pin Hamish, and of course very appropriate for the tartan. I have begun to seek out kilt pins that are of a design other than the typical sword. This one would be a great addition. Of course, then I would need another kilt on which to wear it.

They knew exactly what they were doing when they slipped in that tartan sample.

Resistance is futile.

The Breton flag

Yep,... and as an extra info, there's some theory that suggests that this is the flag from which the USA flag came from. Regarding the pin shape, it's a beauty ,inspired in the ones that appear on the flag, but I've also seen the flag with fleurs-de-lis instead of the shown there.

Regarding the tartan, I prefer the "walking" version more than the "national" one. The colour combination on the tartan is simply perfect!.


Once and again, congrats Ham!

¡Salud!
