A traditional Scottish Mary brooch crafted in silver, surmounted by a crown and decorated with thistle motifs to either side. At the centre sits the characteristic interlaced “MM” monogram, a design long associated with Mary, Queen of Scots.
These brooches became especially popular in the 19th century, celebrated as emblems of Scottish pride and heritage at a time when national symbols were widely revived. Combining the regal crown, national thistle, and historic monogram, this piece exemplifies the typical form of the Mary brooch and its enduring cultural significance.
