Stunning Scottish Pewter Kilt Pin - Welsh Dragon
The national symbol of Wales, the dragon is one of the earliest
‘national’ emblems to emerge in the British Isles, first being mentioned
in around the year 829.
In that famous story King Vortigern’s attempts
to build a castle at Dinas Emrys are mysteriously foiled, until the boy
Merlin reveals that two dragons are fighting below the ground – a red
dragon and a white dragon.
Freed from the ground, the red dragons
triumphs over the white, and this was interpreted to foretell of the
eventual victory of the Britons over the Anglo-Saxons. Size 94mm long.
