I like how it appears more "bottom-heavy." It seems most kilt pins are wider at the top, and come to a point at the bottom. (I'm sure there's some sort of tradition involving not having a sword pointed towards your heart)
But I've noticed that most non-sword kilt pins seem to follow that quasi-inverted triangle look.
This however, is a nice change. I thought it was a modified fluer-de-lis, until Robin was kind enough to post the Breton flag.
Very nice pin, Hamish. I'm another who's a bit tired of all of the sword-based pins (even though my nicest, an old Miracle, is just that). Vive la différence!
Hamish, congratulations on your new kilt pin. I like alternatives to the more commonly seen swords. Now for a question for the less knowledgable that I was hoping you could help me with - exactly what constitutes a kilt pin? How does one determine if a pin is appropriote to use as a kilt pin?
