Historical Significance
The Baron of Greencastle Dress Tartan represents a rich connection to the historic Barony of Greencastle, a title held by noble families in Ireland. Although originating from Ireland, many descendants migrated to Scotland, intertwining their legacy with Scottish clans. This tartan stands as a tribute to this cross-cultural heritage, symbolizing both Irish and Scottish history. The associated clan motto is "Fortis et Fidus" (Brave and Faithful), reflecting the strength and loyalty of its people. The clan crest features a majestic lion standing proudly, symbolizing courage and valor.
Color Scheme & Pattern
This Tartan is a striking blend of deep red and dark blue, crisscrossed with black and white stripes. The rich red symbolizes bravery and the blood ties of the clan, while blue is reminiscent of loyalty and faithfulness. Black represents strength and resilience, while white signifies purity and truth. The pattern follows a traditional sett structure, with broad bands of red intersecting blue squares, giving it a classic yet distinct appearance. Accuracy in the tartan's display is crucial, as these colors hold significant meaning in the history of the barony. It is made from 100% acrylic wool for durability and comfort.
