This doll represents a Scottish bagpiper. He wears a traditional outfit, called a "kilt." The kilt is a wrap-around skirt woven of wool in a tartan pattern. It has pleats at the sides and back. The kilt is most often worn by men on formal occasions and at some sporting events and by bagpipers.

The doll is shown with the Great Highland Bagpipe, native to Scotland. The bagpipe became established in the British military and remains a prominent symbol of Scotland today.
