Willkommen in der Farquharson Tartan Seite! Dieses Schottische Tartan Grundfarbe ist blau und grun mit rot und gelb. Dieser Clan war Mitglied des Clan Chattan-Bündnisses. Gründer des Clans war Farquhar, vierter Sohn von Alexander Cier (Shaw) of Rothiemurchus, Besitzer des Braes of Mar in Aberdeenshire, in der Nähe der Quelle des Flusses Dee. Farquhars Sohn Donald heiratete die Erbin Invercauld, Isobel Stewart, und gebar einen Sohn, Finla Mor. Finla Mor wäre demnach der erste Farquharson. Er fiel als Fahnenträger bei der Schlacht von Pinkie im Jahr 1547. Er hinterließ neun Söhne, die so wie er ebenfalls darauf bedacht waren, das Geschlecht zu erhalten. So wuchs der Clan schnell und gewann an Einfluss.

First of all to explain why there are so many tartans, way over 2000 in fact. There are an awful lot of Scottish clans to start with and on top of this each clan can have many different tartans and names associated with it.
Jeder Tartan hat Variationen, die meiste verbreitet sind Ancient, Modern, Weathered, Hunting and Dress.
About tartan variations
Before 1860 fabrics were coloured using animal and vegetable dyes. This produced the softer colours typical of the Ancient tartans, mossy greens and sky blues, a more orangey red and some would say showing off the pattern to much greater effect as as the contrasts are much brighter than the Modern tartans. The pattern or sett remains the same across all variations of a single tartan, and only the shades or tones vary.
Post 1860 chemical dyes replaced the natural animal and vegetable dyes and the Modern Tartans were born with their stronger and bolder colours. The soft greens and blues become bottle green and navy blue, reds are scarlet.

The Modern tartans are often the more subtle combinations such as the classic Black Watch Modern
Before 1860 fabrics were coloured using animal and vegetable dyes. This produced the softer, more earthy colours typical of the Weathered tartans, reminiscent of bolder colours subjected to wind, rain and sunshine producing beautiful faded tones, olive greens and browns, and very light blues with reds that are more pink than red.
Some mills refer to the Weathered tartans as Muted.
The Hunting Tartans are the camouflage tartans and some clans don't have these variations because they are already predominantly green or brown and don't need amendment to blend in with nature's colours. The Black Watch or Gunn tartans are examples of these, whereas a tartan such as the Fraser is predominantly red and would not provide much cover for men out hunting.
One thing to remember if you are ordering your tartan to match an existing kilt or accessory is that although the sett and colours are the same, there can be a slight difference in colour from one mill to the next. This is purely down to yarn dying so if you need an exact match we suggest you order a swatch to double check.
The Dress Tartans were designed as the name suggests for celebrations and highland dance. The sett or pattern of the tartan remains the same and the main colour is changed to white, or extra white is added to the pattern to give it a brighter, more "fancy" appearance. The Scots do like to bend the rules and occasionally instead of white thread, yellow is used and this is where the rather wild MacLeod Dress Modern and Barclay Dress Modern came from.

Clan Farquharson holds many castles in Invercauld and Aberdeenshire, among them is Braemar Castle where the famous Highland gathering takes place.
The current chief is Captain Alwyne Farquharson of Invercauld who is now over 100 years old. On his birthday His Royal Highness Prince Charles, Duke of Rothesay, sent him a lovely personal letter which you can read on the Clan Farquharson website. Captain Farquharson was awarded the Military Cross for bravery while serving with the Royal Scots Greys in 1944, and is well known for his devoted service as Chieftain of the Ballatur Highland Games and Vice Patron of the Braemar Highland Gathering.
The name means "son of the very dear one" and derives from the Gaelic MacFhearchair.
According to the Clan Farquharson website:
Clan Farquharson, of Celtic origin, derives from Farquhar, fourth son of Alexander “Ciar” Mackintosh of Rothiemurchus, 5th Chief of Clan Shaw. A grant of arms made by Lord Lyon in 1697 stated that John Farquharson of Invercauld was lawfully descended of Shaw son of MacDuff, Thane of Fife whose successors had the name Shaw until Farquhar Shaw, son to Shaw of Rothiemerchus, Chief of the whole name came to be called Farquharson. Thus the Farquharsons branched from Clan Shaw. Farquhar settled in the Braes of Mar and was appointed baillie or chamberlain thereof.
The Fighting Farquharsons - The family were loyal supporters of the Stuarts and their loyalty and ferocity on the battlefield led to this nickname.
