Historical Significance
The Bartlett Tartan is closely associated with the Bartlett family, a name derived from the ancient Germanic personal name Berhtwald, meaning "bright ruler." While the Bartlett clan is not one of the original Highland clans, its members have historically played a significant role in Scottish and Irish culture. The family crest features a gold lion rampant, and the motto, "Fortuna favet audaci" ("Fortune favors the bold"), speaks to the clan's adventurous spirit and resilience. Although the Bartletts may not have their roots in Scotland's Highlands, they have adopted the tartan tradition to honor their connections to Celtic heritage.
