Blair Ancient Tartan
Historical Significance
Embark on a journey through time with the Blair Ancient Tartan, a fabric steeped in history dating back to the mid-12th century. Originating in Ayrshire, Blair, derived from the Gaelic "Blar" meaning moss, holds a unique place in Scotland's cultural tapestry. Bestowed by King William, the name Blair dispersed across medieval regions, leaving an indelible mark on the landscapes of Renfrew, Ayr, and Angus. The Blair clan's motto, "Amo Probos" (Love the Virtuous), transcends generations, symbolized by a majestic stag lodged proudly in their crest. The tartan weaves a narrative deeply rooted in Norman origins and associations with Upall, West Lothian, as evidenced in a historical 1204 document. Distinct lines of descent, notably the Blairs of Blair and the Blairs of Balthayock, trace the family's intricate roots. The tartan itself embodies the historical richness of the Blair legacy, including a valiant member, Roger de Blair, who fought alongside Robert the Bruce at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314.
Color Scheme & Pattern
The Blair Ancient Tartan features a captivating blue background, adorned with black and green stripes. Subtle thin red stripes add warmth and contrast, creating a harmonious blend of colors that captivates the eye. The intricate sett pattern reflects the clan's attention to detail and commitment to craftsmanship, making the tartan a timeless and elegant choice.
