Oak Leaf Kilt Pin

This was alot of fun and just a little thumb hammering. I usually make my pins entirely hammer forged then burnished. No abrasives (files to polish), sawing or soldering. It gives it that medieval house without nails vibe. Hope the images aren't too big.

Nice looking handcrafted pin Ozmeath!

I guessing it's about 5cm..maybe 8.

I think you should add one more image of you wearing a kilt with this pin.

Thanks for sharing

Alas this piece decided to abandon me last sunday at a gig. I didn't realise until I was an hour on the way home. Well I'll just have to make a better one.
