Carinthian National Tartan

Historical Context

The Carinthian National Tartan embodies a rich Scottish cultural legacy, tracing back to the early 16th century. Originally, tartan patterns served as a form of clan and regional identification, woven deeply into Highland history. Tartan became a symbol of resistance and pride during events like the Jacobite Risings, when Highlanders wore it in defiance of British rule. Figures such as Bonnie Prince Charlie and Sir Walter Scott helped popularize tartans, cementing them as enduring emblems of Scottish identity and heritage.

Color Scheme and Pattern

The Carinthian National Tartan features a green base with intersecting blue and yellow stripes, accented by thin red and white lines. Green represents Scotland’s lush landscapes, blue symbolizes loyalty, and red honors the courage of Scottish clansmen. Yellow and white add brightness and contrast, enhancing the overall design. Made from 100% acrylic wool, this tartan ensures durability, comfort, and versatility, making it ideal for everyday Scottish attire or special occasions.
