Traditional Clans of Scotland Scottish Kilt Pin Pewter Various Names Available

A wide selection of clan crested kilt pins.

In ancient times, a Chief wore in battle a distinguishing badge on his helmet, a device which his followers could recognise in the turmoil of action. This is known as the Crest of the Chief and appears at the top of his Full Coat of Arms. Anyone bearing the same name as a Scottish Chief is a Clansman of the Chief and has the privilege of wearing his Crest surrounded by a Strap and Buckle Garter to denote his Clan Allegiance. The great Scottish Clans contain families who bore a different surname but were descended from the Chief through the female line. They are called Septs. Therefore anyone who has an ancestor bearing a Sept name or the Clan name itself has the privilege of wearing or displaying the Crest Badge.
