Kilt Pin Unicorn The unicorn, Scotland's national animal, has been a symbol of Scotland since the time of Robert III in the fourteenth century, possible even as far back as the days of King William the Lion in the 1100s. In mythology, unicorns were immensely powerful and very dangerous creatures, symbols of the brute forces of nature. As majestic as they look you wouldn't want to be in the way of one. As such, the Scottish unicorn has always been depicted chained and collared by a crown, a symbol that the wild and dangerous nature of the Scottish landscape (and people) are unified, tamed and bought together as a kingdom. These cast pewter kilt pins combine authenticity, durability, and detail. The casting process creates a solid kilt pin, made to stand up to regular use. Kilt pins are worn on the top layer of the kilt. Made in Scotland.Features of Gaelic Themes Kilt Pins: Hand-finished cast pewter Lead-free Pin back Approximate dimensions: 2" wide x 3.35" long
