    It may have been commissioned, AZ, but not by me. It was a gift and I suspect was originally from your part of America.

    Why would a feather Kilt Pin have any reference to Chief? I thought that "Other" thread (and it's varied historians) nailed it that one, two or three Eagle feathers designated Chiefs and Clan leadership exclusively in a particular display, not just "random" use of A Feather on the clothing.
    Before you judge someone be sure to walk a mile in their kilt. That way you are at least a mile away and you have their kilt."

    Whatever he said go with it. Wear this horn feather as a kilt pin in good health and with all good wishes. And, of course, a pic posted

    Well, I sure wouldn't want to beat a dead horse, but...



    I would love to wear that thing! It's beautiful. Wear it. Post pictures.

    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
