A Detailed Thistle Pewter Scarf Ring or Scarf Holder. The Thistle is on a Circular Twig to Form a Decorative and Functional Scarf Ring.
In the language of flowers, the thistle, the national flower of Scotland, is an ancient Celtic symbol of nobility of character and birth, for this reason the thistle is the symbol of the Order of the Thistle, a high chivalric order of Scotland. Legend tells of a bare footed Viking attacker who stepped on a thistle at night and cried out, so alerting the defenders of a Scottish castle.
Our thistle scarf ring holder is one of a range of over 200 designs made by Glover and Smith in Salisbury.
