Inspired by ancient Celtic manuscripts, these Scottish Thistle Playing Cards depict Scotland’s national flower, the Thistle, printed on the cream, vellum inspired centre of the card backs, with gorgeous classic Celtic knots often seen in illuminated manuscripts making up the border.
Scotland’s national flower, the legend of the thistle states that when an approaching Viking from a raiding party accidentally stepped on one of the flowers he couldn’t help but cry out in pain, thus alerting the sleeping Scottish warriors who were able to duly defeat the invaders. These playing cards are the perfect way to show off your proud Scottish heritage and feature additional classic Scottish iconography throughout.
