Historical Significance
The Blue Ridge Mountains Tartan is steeped in the rich heritage of Scottish clans, representing a connection to the rugged beauty of the Scottish Highlands and the rolling hills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in North America. Tartans originated in Scotland, where they were woven with distinct patterns and colors to signify different clans and regions. The earliest records of tartan date back to the 16th century, with notable figures, such as Sir Walter Scott, popularizing tartan in the 19th century. Tartans are not just fabric; they embody the spirit and history of Scottish culture, often worn during significant events like clan gatherings and weddings.
