Description: This exquisite die-stamped insignia presents a beautifully defined Scottish thistle bloom framed by two deeply serrated, wrapping leaves. The central bulb of the flower features a prominent cross-hatched pattern to replicate its natural, prickly texture, which is capped by an exploding crown of straight-cut petals. The reverse side is fitted with two unmarked copper lugs, indicating its multi-purpose application across a variety of traditional Scottish military, clan, or high-end civilian dress accoutrements.
Circa: 20th Century
