Lapel/Tie Pin - Celtic Deco Thistle

Finest quality traditional Lapel or Tie Pin made in solid 100% lead free Pewter. 

Celtic deco was a subset of the pre-First World War Art Deco Movement, comprising of famous artists including the iconic Charles Rennie Mackintosh. This pendant is inspired by Mackintosh's Celtic Knot jewellery patterns, which in turn were inspired by ancient Scottish and Irish sources. The thistle has been a national symbol of Scotland since at least the time of James III. As the Renaissance took hold of Scotland, the thistle became an important decorative motif throughout the country, coming to represent the picturesque and hardy qualities of the Scottish landscape and people.
