Ancient Tartan

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.

Helpful Advice

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.

Modern Tartan

Before 1860 fabrics were coloured using animal and vegetable dyes. This produced the softer colours typical of the Ancient tartans. 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.

Helpful Advice

The Modern tartans are often the more subtle combinations such as the classic Black Watch Modern

Weathered Tartan

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.

Helpful Advice

Some mills refer to the Weathered tartans as Muted.

Hunting Tartan

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.

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.

Territories

The name is of territorial origin from the old barony of Dalziel in Lanarkshire.

D'où vient le nom Dalziel?

The Dalziel name derives from the Gaelic ‘dal-gheail’, meaning ‘white meadow’, so named because of the colour of the local clay soil. There are also some from Shetland who bear the name; there, it derives from the island of Yell, hence the Dalyell spelling.

Clan Origin Location Image Dalziel

Dalyell, Dalzell Castle, Dalziel House

This historic house of many names is located South of Motherwell on the north bank of the River Clyde. Built as a tower house by the Dalziel family in the 15th century, extensive additions were made during the 17th and again in the 19th century when the family benefited from the Lanarkshire coal mining boom, restoring buildings and adding a new north wing. Today the house is owned by North Lanarkshire Council.

The basic form of the Dalziel tartan design was used for a 'George IV' tartan produced in honour of the King's visit in 1822
