At the Sgian Dubh Company, we’re alway looking to create new products that blend innovation with tradition.
Every piece is designed and produced exclusively for the company in Scotland and arrives in one of our signature presentation boxes.
Each one is as suited to gifting as it is to wearing.
Here is a closer look at the latest addition to the Sgian Dubh Company range.
New Kilt Pins
The new kilt pins celebrate Scotland’s unique landscape, wildlife and folklore.
From the Loch Ness kilt pin, featuring everyone’s favourite monster, to the Highland Cow kilt pin, each one is a testament to Scottish heritage.
The Antler kilt pin is always a popular choice, which is why we have created new variations of it. The gun-metal finish means it contrasts beautifully with lighter tartans.
All our kilt pins are functional as well as decorative, adding weight to the front apron of the kilt and stopping it blowing open. At the same time, they can be a conversation starter when you are in Highland dress.

New Cufflinks
The cufflinks range has also grown substantially.
Leading the new arrivals is the Highland Coo Cufflinks (from £17.99), now available in polished, matt and copper finishes.
Measuring 20mm by 15mm, each pair captures the unmistakable shaggy coat and sweeping horns of Scotland's iconic Highland cow, and is likely to be one of the more instantly recognisable and light-hearted additions to the range.
The Stag Head Cufflinks celebrate a less comical but just as iconic Scottish animal. Available in polished, matt, copper and gunmetal finishes at 17mm by 17mm. Where the Highland Coo cufflinks lean playful, these lean classic, celebrating Scotland's wildlife with a cleaner, more traditional stag portrait suited to formal wear.
The antler motif that features in the new kilt pins also carries across to cufflinks, with Antler Cufflinks now available in gunmetal and copper finishes.
For those who prefer heraldic detail, the Celtic Cross Cufflinks (from £17.99) are new in both copper and polished finishes, with the copper version measuring 16mm in diameter.
The Thistle Cufflinks in a matt finish (£17.99) offer a more understated version of the brand's signature national emblem than earlier pieces in the range.
As with the kilt pins, the emphasis with this cufflinks drop is choice of finish as much as choice of design.
Buyers can now match a single motif, be it stag, thistle, antler or Celtic cross, to whichever finish best suits their existing jewellery or the formality of the occasion, from a copper tone for everyday wear through to a crisper polished or gunmetal finish for evening dress.
Final thoughts
Taken together, these new kilt pins and cufflinks show a company still finding new ways to present familiar Scottish symbols.
That could be the look of the dignified Stag to the Celtic cross.
All of the new pieces are supplied in the Sgian Dubh Company's presentation boxes, so whether you are buying for a wedding, a Burns Night gift or simply to complete your own Highland dress, there is now more choice than ever.
