Enw’r cleddyf — the name
Before Excalibur was Excalibur, it was Welsh
Caledfwlch — say it kal-ED-voolch, with the ch of “bach” — is two old Welsh words: caled, hard, and bwlch, a breach. The hard breach. It is Arthur’s sword in Culhwch ac Olwen, the earliest Arthurian tale in any language, told in Wales and written down around 1100.
Geoffrey of Monmouth turned it into Latin Caliburnus, the French softened that to Escalibor, and English finished the journey: Excalibur. The most famous sword in the world is a Welsh word wearing a French coat — this kit gives it its own name back.
The dragon runs right through the design: scales wrapping the whole grip, the tail-tip as the pommel, and Y Ddraig Goch herself — red with bold black line-work — on the shield that hangs it on the wall. Designed and test-printed in Swansea.
