My actual crest as a Macpherson Armiger, depicts a rampant Scottish Wildcat, which on its own, I think would look absolutely lovely as silver buttons for my doublet.

    Of course, having the buttons made, and I do have in mind a highly reputable silversmith located in Edinburgh (still need to have my bonnet badge struck), would be a costly undertaking, but I am quite confident that the result would be simply stunning! My rampant Wildcat would look extremely smart on a tartan doublet...wow, I just realised that my doublet will be quite the undertaking indeed! Wish me luck and I definitely shall keep everyone abreast of the progress! Thanks again gents.

    Touch not the cat,
    Kyle,

    Allow me to recommend Agry in Paris. They are the best in the world, bar none.

    Scott
