Stirling is a quaint little city in central Scotland with lots of history and an amazing castle that towers above it all. It is considered the ‘Gateway to the Highlands” and was a great place of strategic importance back in the day. The town itself has tons of cool little shops to grab your cherished whiskey or your traditional Scottish garb as well as some great pubs to grab a pint or meal. As you head up to the castle along the cobbled streets, you will notice the trees that surround the castle and the mountains in the background---lots of green. The castle is on top of a crag and surrounded on 3 sides by cliffs and it overlooks the entire area. The castle is one of the most historically and architecturally important castles in Scotland and has been under siege at least 8 times in its day. When on top, you can see for miles and you also realize that Stirling is situated on the River Forth which was the site of the Battle of Stirling Bridge in 1297 during the first war for Scottish independence with the great William Wallace. The best view of Stirling is from on top of the magnificent William Wallace Monument nearby. Trust me, you can’t miss it! As you can guess, Stirling has tons of history to explore as it really does make an impact on you. This bracelet was made to have a look and feel of the place. The main Alloy/Silver Bead and the Hand-Carved Ox Bone Beads have a look of those cool cobblestone streets in town. The Stainless-Steel Nuts add the castle vibe and the Gray/Gren recycled Glass Beads showcase those misty green colors you only see in Scotland. An Antique Scottish Piper Tunic Sleeve Button gives this piece an authentic kick---the Scottish Thistle on it really stands out. A Bone Mala Skull is a shout out to Wallace who still has his hooks into Stirling. When you raise your glass with this bad boy bracelet on your wrist, don’t forget to say, “He who holds Stirling, holds Scotland."
