Description

A sterling silver Clan Burnett cap badge featuring the clan's crest and motto. The motto shows an arm holding a pruning knife and pruning a vine tree with bunches of grapes. The motto is "Virescit Vulnere Virtus," which is Latin for "Courage grows strong at a wound" or "Flourishes by virtue". Clan crest badges were traditionally worn by clan members as a symbol of loyalty and affiliation to their chief. The ancestral home of the Burnetts is Crathes Castle in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. The pin also has a loop at back so it can be worn as a pendant. Good condition.
