This lot comprises 42 medals, pendants, and pin badges, predominantly crafted from gold-tone, silver-tone, and bronze-tone metals, frequently featuring vibrant enamel or colored plastic inserts. The consistent iconography centers around figures of Scottish Highland dancers in various poses, often accompanied by traditional Scottish motifs such as thistles, laurels, crests, and stars. Visible English text, including “FESTIVAL OF HIGHLAND DANCING,” “DUFFTOWN,” “WATT,” “MEDAL,” “JUNIOR CHAMPION,” “S.D.T.A.,” and “B.A.T.D.,” indicates their origin from competitive Highland dance events. Stylistically, the items date from the mid-20th century to the early 21st century.
