Hardie Tartan

Historical Significance

The Hardie Tartan holds a unique place in the world of tartans, hailing from the House of Tartan for Mr. P Hardie of Ecclesmachan, West Lothian. As an inherited surname, the Hardie Tartan represents a rich lineage that resonates with the wearer's heritage. This tartan, while a relatively modern creation from the second half of the 20th century, encapsulates the spirit of Scottish clans. Notably, the tartan is not recognized by the Scottish Tartans Authority, adding to its distinctive allure. The surname Hardie originates from the Old French and Old English word 'hardi,' meaning brave, symbolizing the fearless nature of those who bear this name. The influence of the Hardie name is exemplified by figures such as Thomas Hardy, the renowned English novelist and poet.

Color Scheme & Pattern

The Hardie Tartan features a harmonious blend of dark green, navy blue, white, red, and light purple. The dark green represents the lush Scottish landscapes, while the navy blue adds depth to the design. White lines symbolize purity, red accents highlight bravery, and light purple brings a touch of elegance to the pattern. Carefully arranged, these colors evoke a sense of Scottish charm and cultural heritage, creating a visually captivating tartan design that is both distinctive and appealing. The tartan is made from 100% acrylic wool, ensuring durability and comfort.
