103 Lancashire Artillery Volunteers Pipers kilt pin

[Peter Brydon]

Very pleased to have acquired an example of this silver kilt pin, a private commission for the Pipers of 103 Lancashire Artillery Volunteers.

The incorporation of the shamrocks etc reflects the Pipes and Drums origins in The Liverpool Irish Pipes and Drums.

Very grateful to S.M. In helping me get this example.
