Clan Crest Lapel or Tie Pin
-
Dimensions Approx. 1.5" x 0.25" (4cm x 1cm) Emblem Clan crest - Made in Scotland
- 128 Clan Crests available
- Over 1200 Family Surnames
- Non-scratch non-tarnish finish
- Approved by Standing Council of Scottish Chiefs
In Scotland's turbulent past it was the custom for Clan Chiefs to give their followers a metal plate of their crest, to be worn as a badge of allegiance which fastened to their clothing with a strap and buckle. When not in use, the belt was coiled around the crest and this convention is used in the clan crest badges of today. Only a Clan Chief may wear the crest without the strap and buckle.
These superbly detailed clan crest designs are approved by the Standing Council of Scottish Chiefs, as authentic representations taken from the arms of the Chief of the Clans. Every Clan Chief or family head has a Coat of Arms granted by the Lord Lyon King of Arms, which is listed in the Public Register of All Arms and Bearings in Scotland. The Register, established in 1592 and kept in the Court of the Lord Lyon in Edinburgh, is acknowledged as being the most magnificent heraldic manuscript in Scotland.

The lapel pin is small but as expected, lapel pins are normally small. I am impressed with the level of detail and finish and how easy it is to read the motto. This addition provides the opportunity to discreetly show clan loyalty where it would not be otherwise possible. Russell 03/04/2019

A nice little item that complements a tie very well. A little bit smaller than I thought it would be, but otherwise I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Alasdair 26/02/2014

Recently bought one of these to compliment a Hunter Modern tartan tie (also purchased from this site). The pin is nice, well finished and well presented.
The Hunter clan crest can be identified and the motto is legible. But the pin is not big and I can see why some clan mottos might not be so legible.
Overall nice item..

This lapel pin did not meet my expectations from Scotweb. There is little visible detail. Although the clan motto is clearly legible in the Scotweb example ("nobilis est ira leonis"), I cannot read the Kerr clan motto on the pin actually delivered -- even with a magnifying glass -- but only make out the general shape of the clan badge. It is, however, of basically good quality, but I can only rate it as "adequate" and not up to usual Scotweb standards. Len Pellman (Kerr) 15/11/2009

This order arrived a week earlier than estimated and was exactly as specified. I
have never worn a tie pin before and this one looks superb. It will round off my
informal dancing wear. The order/delivery service was superb and Scotweb are to
be congratulated on their excellent customer service.
