This unique kilt pin is made of chrome plated rhodium and features a thistle design with a purple stone in the middle. This pin measures at 2 and 7/8 inches in length. Made in Scotland.
The kilt pin is a very attractive part of the outfit. The pin is worn on the right side of the kilt, about an inch or so from the edge of the fringe. It should sit just under level with the middle of the sporran and squarely in the pattern of the tartan. The pin should only be pushed through the front apron of the kilt. Pinning it to both layers prohibits the kilt from moving when you walk. Secondary kilt pins aren't common, but can be worn above the primary pin.
