Gordon Red Ancient Tartan

Historical Context

Immerse yourself in the rich tapestry of Scottish heritage with the timeless Gordon Tartan. Each thread of this iconic fabric tells a story of resilience, loyalty, and a history that stretches back through the ages. Journey through Scotland's storied past as we explore the profound legacy of Clan Gordon. From the rolling hills of the Scottish Borders to the majestic landscapes of Aberdeenshire, the Gordons embody the enduring spirit of the Highlands. Their motto, "Bydand" (Remaining), resonates through history, reflecting the clan's steadfast commitment to their heritage. The clan's legacy is marked by influential figures such as Sir Adam Gordon, who fiercely supported Robert the Bruce and even petitioned the Pope to lift Bruce's excommunication, highlighting Scotland's fight for independence. Sir Alexander Gordon, famously known as the "Cock o' the North," became the Earl of Huntly in 1449, a title that epitomizes the clan's pride and strength throughout history.

This tartan showcases a vibrant and dynamic color palette, featuring a mix of bright red, soft turquoise, deep green, and accents of black and white.

The deep green adds richness and depth to the design, while the black and white lines intersect, providing sharp definition and a sense of structure. This combination of colors results in a tartan that is both lively and timeless, capturing the essence of Scottish heritage with a modern twist.
