Adams Tartan

Historical Significance

The Adams Tartan represents the rich history and legacy of the Adams family, tracing its roots to the Lowlands of Scotland. The clan crest features a cross crosslet fitchée, Gules, surmounted by a sword in saltire, Proper, embodying the motto "Crux Mihi Grata Quies" (The cross gives me welcome rest). Historically, the Blair Adam estate in Kinross-shire served as the clan's seat.
