Owen Of Wales Tartan
Historical Context
Step into the rich tapestry of Welsh heritage with the Owen Of Wales Tartan, a testament to the enduring legacy of the Welsh surname "Owen" and its variations. This distinguished tartan holds a special place in the heart of Wales, and its official recognition as a symbol of Welsh identity is a source of pride for the Owen clan and all who share this remarkable lineage. Woven at the renowned Cambrian Woolen Mill, which has been producing exceptional textiles since 1830, the Owen Of Wales Tartan boasts a unique characteristic that sets it apart from traditional Scottish patterns. Unlike the predominantly horizontal sett patterns of Scottish tartans, Welsh tartans exhibit a striking vertical "stripe" due to the distinct proportions of warp and weft. This distinctive feature adds a touch of individuality and flair to the Owen Tartan, capturing the essence of Welsh design traditions.
The roots of the Owen Of Wales Tartan can be traced back to 2002 when the Wales Tartan Centre in Cardiff introduced a series of commercial Welsh 'name' tartans. Collaborating with Sheila Daniel of Cambrian Woollen Mill, they meticulously crafted the Owen Tartan, incorporating odd numbered threads and unparalleled warp and weft variations. This harmonious collaboration resulted in a captivating tartan design that embodies the spirit of the Owen family's heritage.
Color Scheme and Pattern
The Owen Of Wales Tartan features a vibrant interplay of colors, showcasing stripes of green, black, and red. The energetic green symbolizes the lush landscapes and natural beauty of Wales, evoking a sense of vitality and connection to the land. The dignified black represents strength, resilience, and the enduring spirit of the Owen clan. Finally, the passionate red adds a touch of warmth and vitality, paying homage to the vibrant culture and heritage that have shaped Wales throughout history. Made from 100% acrylic wool, this tartan offers durability and comfort.
