Historical Significance
The Beaufort Tartan is deeply intertwined with the history of the Clan Fraser of Lovat, a prominent Highland clan with a strong presence in the Scottish Highlands. Known for their loyalty to the Jacobite cause, the clan played a significant role in the Battle of Culloden in 1746, where they fought bravely for Bonnie Prince Charlie. The Fraser clan's motto, "Je suis prest" (I am ready), reflects their readiness and valor in times of war and peace. The clan crest, featuring a buck's head, symbolizes their connection to the wild, rugged landscape of Scotland, and their resilience over the centuries.
Color Scheme & Pattern
This Tartan is distinctive with its vibrant mix of royal blue, black, white, and brown. The royal blue symbolizes loyalty and strength, reflecting the clan's enduring commitment to Scotland and its people. The black represents the deep heritage and the clan's battles for independence, while the white stripes add contrast and purity to the design, signifying peace and honesty. The subtle brown threads woven through the tartan add a touch of nobility and prestige. Made from 100% acrylic wool, it offers both durability and comfort.
