Historical Context
The Arran Isle Ancient Tartan has its roots deeply embedded in Scottish heritage, originating from the rugged landscapes of the Isle of Arran. This tartan, characterized by its distinct patterns, has been associated with the clan system, representing family lineage and pride. Tartan patterns often served as a means of identification among clans, and during the Jacobite risings in the 17th and 18th centuries, tartan became a symbol of Scottish rebellion and unity. Notable figures such as Bonnie Prince Charlie championed its cause, wearing the tartan to inspire loyalty among the Scots.
