This is a wonderful and striking vintage Scottish kilt pin that captures all the charm and tradition of mid-century Celtic revival craft. Measuring 10 x 2 cm, the piece is cast in solid brass with a warm polished finish and an intricate openwork design featuring two stylized, intertwined Celtic wolves at the head, flowing into traditional knotwork details along a tapering shaft. Signed "C.J. Scotland" on the reverse, it is a fantastic find for any collector of British heritage jewelry.
Mid-century Scottish workshops revived traditional Celtic and Highland designs, transitioning from expensive Victorian silver-and-mined-stone jewelry to accessible, detailed metal pieces. Makers like CJ Scotland produced these durable brass brooches to adorn heavy woolens, tartans, shawls, and kilts, continuing a rich heritage of Scottish souvenir and tourist jewelry through the 1950s–1970s.
The brooch is in very good condition, with light cosmetic wear as is expected of a vintage piece, and features a fully functioning pin and safety rollover clasp that works securely.
Whether you are building a collection of vintage Celtic pieces or looking for a stunning statement accessory for a lapel or knitwear, this signed CJ Scotland kilt pin is a gorgeous piece of mid-century history ready to be worn and admired.
