Plaid Pins

The fly plaid or tartan pin is used in the traditional Kilt ensemble. The kilt would be worn, with a kilt pin holding the apron in place, with a long piece of plaid material wrapped around the waist and over the front of the chest and over the shoulder.

How to keep this loose plaid from flying off? A fly plaid pin. These large decorative pins are traditionally made from heavy pewter and feature a long pin suitable for holding a piece of fabric in place. The Celtic designs should compliment the ensemble with an intricate Celtic knotwork or a sparkling crystal.

These large pins are perfect for the Celtic wedding - dressing up the groom in a dashing kilt ensemble, but they can also be worn by the bride to hold a piece of veil or cloth - a nod to her Celtic culture that is as old as time. Brooches or pins such as these have been worn by the Celtic peoples for thousands of years. What a great gift to pass on to a family memeber or give as a special Wedding day gift.
