    Can someone recommend a maker of clan badges? I would like to purchase a quality badge.

    Not sure where in the World you are - but you could commission a local silversmith.

    In your neck of the woods a "close-by" place would be the Scottish Tartans Museum. See, for example,

    http://giftshop.scottishtartans.org/crestbadge.html

    Also, USA Kilts sells them at

    http://www.usakilts.com/index.php/ki...ollection.html

    If you poke around the web a bit, you will find many other places, too. Good luck.

    You might gather a few more suggestions if you moved this to the Heraldry section. Just a suggestion...

    If that's what the OP wishes, I can do that... Just send a quick PM if so desired.
