Gunn Tartan

Historical Context: The Gunn Tartan holds deep historical significance, woven from the vibrant threads of Norse and Pictish heritage. The Gunn clan, emerging from the formidable union of Norse Jarls of Orkney and Pictish Mormaers of Caithness, carries a legacy of resilience and fierce independence. Historically, the Gunns were embroiled in relentless clan warfare, often standing their ground against neighboring clans like the Keiths, MacKays, and Sutherlands. This turbulent history of conflict and courage not only fortified the clan's identity but also deeply influenced the characteristics of their tartan. The Gunn Ancient Tartan is more than just fabric; it's a vibrant emblem of the clan's spirited history, a symbol of heritage and ancestral pride. By donning this tartan, one embraces the Gunn clan's storied past and their enduring connection to the rugged landscapes of Scotland.

Color Scheme and Pattern: This tartan features a lush green background, intersected by thick bands of dark blue and black, and highlighted by fine lines of green and red. These colors are not just visually striking but also rich in symbolism, reflecting the bold and combative spirit of the Gunn clan. The vibrant green evokes the lush Scottish highlands, while the blue and black echo the depths of the clan's Norse roots, and the fiery orange check stands as a testament to their fierce battles and indomitable spirit. The tartan is made from 100% acrylic wool for durability and comfort.
