The Story Behind the Design
Two unicorns surge forward together through crashing water in a hand engraved composition inspired by Scotland's national animal. Rich in movement and flowing detail, the design combines mythology with an elegant study of strength, freedom and imagination.
For centuries the unicorn has stood as one of Scotland's most enduring symbols. Unlike the gentle creature of later fairy tales, the Scottish unicorn represents independence, courage and a spirit that refuses to be subdued. It is powerful rather than delicate, wild rather than tame.
This engraving depicts two unicorns running together through swirling water, their manes carried by the motion around them. Rather than illustrating a single legend, the composition celebrates the enduring symbolism of the unicorn itself, capturing energy, freedom and quiet confidence in equal measure.
Whether admired as a piece of Scottish mythology or simply as a striking equestrian design, the engraving reflects the timeless appeal of one of Scotland's most recognisable emblems, where imagination and national identity have long run side by side.
Developed specifically for glass, the composition preserves movement and clarity while allowing the finer details to emerge as light moves across the engraved surface.
