Historical Significance
The Barwell Tartan represents the Barwell family, a name originating from the Midlands of England, particularly Leicestershire. Although not a traditional Scottish clan, the Barwell family has historic connections to various Scottish territories and ties to nobility through marriages. The Barwell motto, 'Virtute et labore' (By virtue and labor), underscores their values of hard work and integrity, a fitting sentiment for any proud wearer. The Barwell crest features a stag, symbolizing peace and harmony with nature. The Barwell family, though small in comparison to great clans, reflects a strong legacy of determination and effort.
Color Scheme & Pattern
The Barwell tartan is a striking composition of deep navy blue, accented with fine red lines forming squares, with subtle green running through the weave. The blue signifies loyalty and steadfastness, while the red evokes courage and passion. The inclusion of green speaks to harmony and growth. This balanced color combination forms a bold yet refined checkered pattern, representing the Barwell family's historical ties to nature and the rural landscape of the Midlands. It's perfect for those wanting an understated yet distinguished tartan.
