    Scots and Indians have a relationship (At least in my home state of Georgia). Anyone who has been to the Stone Mountain highland Games can recall the Clan Chief of Macintosh "Dode" wearing his Indian feather bonnet as chief of the Creek nation AS WELL as clan chief of Macintosh.

    I was very lucky to meet a talented First Peoples artist and talked him into doing some Kilt Pins for us.

    He comes from a line of renowned carvers and artists that goes back to Willie Seaweed. For those of you with some knowledge of the 1st peoples of the Pacific NW coast you will recognize that name.

    These pieces are in the style of Kwakwaka'wakw which are from the extreme North coast of Vancouver Island and the associated mainland.

    They are all sterling silver and I use the one on the upper left on my Highland Granite Tewksbury.



    Upper Left - Winter Full Moon
    Upper Right - Sun
    Lower - Sisiutl, the two headed Sea Serpent.

    I wear the kilt because:
    Swish + Swagger = Swoon.
