Scottish jewellery is jewellery created in Scotland or in a style associated with Scotland, which today often takes the form of the Celtic style. It is often characterised by being inspired by nature, Scandinavian mythology, and Celtic knot patterns.[1][self-published source?] Jewellery has a history in Scotland dating back to at least the Iron Age.[2]
