Historical Significance
The Baillie Ancient Tartan is not just a fabric; it embodies a rich history rooted in the Scottish Lowlands. The Baillie Clan, with ancestry tracing back to the Norman knights accompanying William the Conqueror in the 11th century, derives its name from the Old French word "baille," meaning steward. This clan has a legacy of leadership and service in Scotland, notably linked with the Stewarts of Lennox, renowned figures in Scottish politics and warfare. The Baillie Clan actively participated in the Wars of Scottish Independence and supported the Stuarts during the Jacobite risings, showcasing their dedication to Scotland's sovereignty. The Baillie Ancient Tartan serves as a tribute to this storied heritage, allowing wearers to connect with centuries of tradition.
