County Limerick Tartan
Historical Significance
The County Limerick Tartan is steeped in the rich cultural and historical heritage of County Limerick, located in the Munster province of Ireland. With its Gaelic motto "Cuimhnigh ar Luimneach," meaning "Remember Limerick," this tartan reflects a legacy that dates back to the Coriondi tribe noted by Ptolemy in the 2nd century. The county has seen various tribes, including the Uaithne and the Ui Fidgeinte, and played a significant role during the Norman invasion. Prominent families, such as the O'Hurleys and Fitzgeralds, shaped the region's history, facing conflicts and evolving power dynamics. The Geraldines, a leading Norman family, notably revolted against English rule in 1569, which led to significant land confiscations. Moreover, the county was pivotal during the 17th century Irish Confederate Wars, contributing to its intricate historical tapestry.
Color Scheme & Pattern
This tartan features a vibrant mix of blue, green, yellow, black, and light red, woven together to create a distinct and meaningful pattern. Blue represents the rivers and lakes of County Limerick, green symbolizes the lush countryside, yellow embodies the strength and courage of the people, while black reflects resilience. The subtle light red lines add a touch of warmth, enhancing the overall depth of the design. Crafted from 100% acrylic wool, this tartan offers both durability and comfort, ensuring it can be enjoyed for years to come.
