The
scottish costume - our tartan
|
By the design of kilt and plaid the expert will recognize the wearers membership to the respective scottish
clan. There are hundreds of different tartans. Our beautiful green checkered design is the tartan of the clans of
sutherland and is called Ancient Sutherland. The Earl of Sutherland,
the Clanchief Lord Strathnaver, is our patron. He himself has allowed us to
wear his tartan officially. His property is located on the northern coast of
Scottland near by the little town of Golspie. The Sutherland Clan is one of
the richest Clans in Scottland. Lord Strathnaver owns a unique castle: Dunrobin
Castle. Some
of our members that where able to visit the castle once, claimed that even
the floors and walls are partially covered with the tartan design. On the
other hand, the toilet paper seems to be in its usual colouring.
