Pour expliquer les variations de tartan
- Ancient
- Modern
- Weathered
- Hunting
- Dress
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.
Quelques constats
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.
Quelques constats
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.
Quelques constats
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.
Quelques constats
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.
Dress Tartan
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.

L'Écosse ne manque pas d'histoires à raconter
Territories
Aberdeenshire and Tweeddale
Clan Chief
The current chief is Merlin Sereld Victor Gilbert Hay, 24th Earl of Erroll. Although his father's name was Moncreiffe, and he inherited the Moncreiffe baronetcy on his death, his name has never been Moncreiffe because he was heir to the earldom of Erroll at birth. His father, in fact, considered following the old practice of changing his own name to Hay, but he unexpectedly became chief of the Moncreiffes when his cousin burned himself to death, so a new set of arrangements was arrived at, with his second son adopting the Moncreiffe name.
D'où vient le nom Hay?
Haye comes from haia, meaning hedge or stockade
Old Slains Castle
Old Slains Castle was built on a narrow rocky peninsula sticking out into the North Sea in the fourteenth century by the Hays, who had acquired the lands following the First War of Scottish Independence. They occupied the Castle near Colieston in Aberdeenshire until 1594 when it was blown up by James VI in retaliation for their support for a pro-Catholic rebellion led by the Earl of Huntly. Hay was forced to flee the country, returning in 1597 to make peace with the King. Having recovered his estates he had the option to rebuild Old Slains Castle but instead opted to build new Slains Castle at Bowness, six miles away.Tartan Day
Clan Hay were selected to march as the Honoured clan for the 20th Annual New York Tartan Day Parade in 2018. The clan marched along side their pipe band being one of the only clans lucky enough to have it's own pipe band.
Clan Hay Pipe Band
The Clan Hay Pipe Band was founded in 2004 and is based with Clan Hay’s Continental Europe branch in Brussels. The band is led by Pipe Major Philippe Vervoort, who is also personal piper to the Earl of Erroll, Chief of Clan Hay.
Duns Castle
Duns Castle was built in the 14th Century, but has been the home to the Hay family since 1696, when it was acquired by the First Earl of Tweeddale. His descendants, Alick and Aline Hay, still own the castle to this day, and live in its private quarters. The castle is set within extensive grounds, home to a huge variety of wildlife and is a very popular wedding destination due to the stunning backdrop that the grounds provide. The castle has been used as the location for many photoshoots over the years and was even featured in the 1997 film, Mrs Brown. However, the most interesting part about the castle is the rumour that it is haunted by Alexander Hay, who was killed at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815.Clan Motto: Serva Jugum (Keep the Yoke).
