About Scottish Tartan

Synonymous with Scotland, tartan is a twill weave fabric that features a vibrant pattern of interlacing stripes. Traditionally made with wool, it dates back to before the Romans, later becoming synonymous with Scottish clans and banned as the British Government fought the Jacobite rebellion. A huge revival in the 19th century saw tartans and Highland wear gain appreciation as symbols of the romance and spirit of Scotland.
