Mackellar Tartan
Historical Context: The Mackellar Tartan holds a rich heritage as a part of the Campbell Clan, specifically as a sept�a group of families associated with a larger clan. Rooted in Scottish history, the MacKellars have their own distinctive story to tell. The clan motto "Perseverando" reflects their enduring spirit and determination. The name MacKellar itself derives from "Mac Walair," meaning "son of Earlair." With their origins dating back to the 13th century, the MacKellar family established a significant presence in Argyll. In 1476, James III granted Gilchrist MacAlere lands in Adare and Craig Mingle, solidifying their ancestral ties to the region. Notably, the MacKellars share early connections with the Campbells of Argyll, exemplifying the interwoven tapestry of Scottish clans and their intertwined destinies. The MacKellar tartan, which emerged in the 1930s, features two similar versions.
Color Scheme and Pattern: The design of the Mackellar Tartan showcases an array of vibrant colors, including stripes of green, blue, yellow, white, and black hues. Each color carries its own symbolic significance, reflecting the natural beauty and diverse landscapes of Scotland. The alternating bands of green and blue represent the lush forests and sparkling waters that grace the Scottish countryside. The addition of yellow evokes the warmth of the sun, while white and black accents provide contrast and depth. This harmonious sett pattern captures the spirit of the MacKellars and their connection to the land.
