Yes, it is my Salmon of Knowledge buckle. In this buckle I have bezel-set a piece of torched (molten) glass. The kilt pin matches. I have some stones from Scotland (marble, jasper, epidote, agate) that can be used instead of glass, but I liked the blue glass with the blue in the tartan.
The Scottish Tartans Museum Gift Shop has some buckles on display in Franklin, so check them out- and all their other handmade things- if you ramble up that way.
