This is a traditional medium-sized plaid brooch with a large round cut away to show off your tartan below. This is meant to evoke the old medieval brooches, while being in a contemporary style. This brooch has a slight dome to it. This will be a subtle statement piece that rewards close inspection.
This brooch has a series of lion bosses at four angles, with a simple Celtic Knot and zoomorphic beast motif in between. The lion has been a symbol of Scotland and the Scots since the middle ages, while the knotwork stretches back into the early middle ages. The delightful lions here were designed by the late Romilly Squire, heraldic artist to the Lord Lyon.
Plaid brooches attach to the shoulder plaid to act as weights to keep them in place. Note that you do not pin the plaid to the jacket, in case the plaid snags on anything. This also makes a nice lady’s shawl brooch.
Cast from high-quality 100% lead-free pewter.
Size 72mm diameter - ideal for use with our fly plaids or shawls.
