    Scottish motto ring...

    Not specifically a kilt accessory but I thought this forum was the right place. I purchased a sterling silver ring engraved with the national motto of Scotland and the saltire flag a few years ago at the Sterling Renaissance Faire in upstate NY. The company is called The Enchanted Glyph. They were a pleasure to do business with. The ring is beautifully made and the motto (in latin) is extremely readable. They offer it in gold as well for a much higher price. Check it out...

    Thanks for posting that link, I heard about the ring from someone and wrote down the url but lost the slip of paper I wrote it on. Much obliged!

    Nice piece.
    While were on the subject, I'd like to recommend a local goldsmith, Jason Bellchamber, who has done some custom pieces for us. You'll see him at various games and festivals, I see him here in town.

    He's got a lot of Celtic pieces and really gets into the art history of his designs. McMurdo, you might like his Maple Leaf pieces. He also makes some totem designs and Greenman designs.

    Bellchamber, make sure you look at custom collection pages.
