Oliphant – Ancient
The Oliphant Ancient tartan is a visually striking pattern that embodies a deep connection to Scottish heritage. This tartan primarily features a rich blend of dark green and blue, complemented by black and highlighted with subtle white lines. The dark green and blue hues are reminiscent of the Scottish landscapes, evoking the deep lochs and rolling hills that are so characteristic of Scotland.
The name “Oliphant” in this tartan represents the Oliphant family, a name of Norman origin that became prominent in Scotland during the Middle Ages. The ancient variant of the Oliphant tartan uses lighter shades of green and blue to replicate the effects of aging on the dyes, giving it an authentic, time-worn look that appeals to those who appreciate historical accuracy in their tartan selections.
This tartan is not only a symbol of the Oliphant family lineage but also serves as a piece of wearable history, ideal for occasions that call for a display of ancestral pride or simply an appreciation of Scottish culture.
