Bell Tartan
Historical Significance
This distinguished tartan was born from the collaborative efforts of two visionaries: Col. William Bell and renowned kilt maker Bob Martin. In the early days of 1984, their shared passion for Scottish culture ignited a creative spark that led to the birth of this iconic tartan. The Bell Tartan quickly gained recognition and acclaim within the Bell Clan community. During the historic 1984 Bell gathering in Staunton, Virginia, where Bell Clan members from far and wide united, this extraordinary design captivated hearts and minds. The tartan's unique beauty and symbolism resonated deeply with those in attendance, and it received unanimous approval as an "Original Design." Buoyed by this momentous occasion, the Bell Tartan was propelled into the annals of Scottish tartan history. Its fame and significance reached beyond the gathering, capturing the attention of the Scottish Tartans Authority, which bestowed their official approval upon it. Named Bell of the Borders, this tartan is also affectionately known as "Dress Blue."

The Bell Tartan captivates with its enchanting color palette. Predominantly adorned with blue, it harmonizes gracefully with the interplay of black, white, red, and. Each hue signifies different aspects of Scottish heritage, from the majestic landscapes to the vibrant traditions that have shaped the nation.
