Size approx - 205mm
Thomas Kerr Ebbutt was a notable Scottish manufacturing jeweller, operating out of St David’s Square in the city of Edinburgh. He began his career in the jewellery industry in the year 1896, rapidly establishing himself as a skilled artisan. Unfortunately, his life was cut short when he passed away in 1921, leaving behind a legacy in the craft of jewellery making that echoed through the years.
From the very beginning, he had concentrated his efforts on creating exquisite Highland Dress accoutrements that reflected the rich cultural heritage of Scotland. His company continued to thrive in the industry until 1977, when it was ultimately purchased by the esteemed Hamilton & Inches. His sgian dubhs are not only highly prized but also widely respected for their exceptional beauty
