Historical Significance
The Gaelic Fire Tartan has its roots in the late nineteenth century with the Gaelic Fire Clan, a prominent wholesaler of drapes established in Edinburgh. Catering initially to the flourishing tailoring industry, the company focused on high-quality textiles and tweed. In 1999, it relocated to Perth, solidifying its status as a leading producer of Highlandwear. The introduction of the Gaelic Fire Tartan marked a significant milestone, symbolizing a commitment to preserving Scottish heritage while embracing modern aesthetics. This tartan not only reflects the company's evolution but also embodies Scotland's vibrant culture, connecting its rich past with contemporary fashion.
Color Scheme & Pattern
The Gaelic Fire Tartan features a rich and sophisticated design, dominated by a deep navy blue base that symbolizes the vastness of Scotland's night skies. Bold stripes of fiery red intersect this dark backdrop, creating a striking contrast that evokes the warmth and intensity of a roaring fire. Subtle black and charcoal lines weave through the pattern, adding depth and texture. Made from 100% acrylic wool, this tartan is both durable and comfortable, making it ideal for traditional Highlandwear while also retaining an elegant style.
