Welsh Dragon Rampant Kilt Pin/Brooch

Welsh Dragon Rampant Kilt Pin/Brooch

Show your pride in Welsh heritage with the Welsh Dragon Pewter Kilt Pin. The dragon has long been a symbol of the Britons, most famously known today as the emblem of Wales. From heraldic crests in towns and families across Wales to the national flag itself (Y Ddraig Goch), the red dragon has represented power, courage, and identity for centuries.

The dragon as a Welsh symbol dates back at least to the early medieval period. Legends tell of Romano-British soldiers carrying the red dragon (Draco) to Rome in the fourth century, while historical accounts suggest Welsh kings first adopted the dragon in the fifth century to assert their authority after Rome’s withdrawal from Britain. By the seventh century, it had become known as the Red Dragon of Cadwaladr, king of Gwynedd. Today, the flag of Wales—officially adopted in 1959—remains one of the oldest national symbols still in use.

This sturdy pewter kilt pin captures the timeless spirit of the Welsh dragon while serving as a practical and decorative accessory. Large enough to secure a kilt apron and versatile enough to wear on a scarf or lapel, it’s a meaningful way to honor Welsh tradition.

Key Features:

• Welsh dragon design – symbol of power, courage, and heritage

• Crafted from pewter for durability and strength

• Practical and decorative – secure kilts, scarves, or lapels
