I first acquired a jade bar which at 55 mm seems too delicate before acquiring the jade sword at 75 mm which seems right, however, now I am playing around with the idea of both of them as shown in the picture. Thoughts? The tartan is Murray of Atholl

    Not sure how to rotate picture. Idea is sword vertical with bar below.

    I have no association with New Zealand other than finding it a beautiful country when I got to visit.
    My personal opinion is to just wear the sword as I feel the two pins together appear cluttered.

    Otherwise I think it’s a very cool pin. I’ve always liked the broadsword styled kilt pins you sometimes see.
