Welsh National – Ancient
The Welsh National tartan, in its ancient variant, is a striking representation of Wales’ rich heritage and cultural symbolism. This tartan primarily features deep shades of ancient green, which evoke the lush landscapes and rolling hills of Wales. Complementing the green are bold scarlet stripes that add a vibrant contrast, symbolizing the strength and passion of the Welsh people. White lines subtly intersperse the pattern, offering a balance that enhances the tartan’s visual appeal.
Traditionally, the ancient variant of the Welsh National tartan uses muted tones to reflect the natural dyes that would have been available in the past, giving it an old-world charm that is highly valued in both historical and contemporary settings. This tartan is not only a symbol of national pride but also serves as a wearable piece of history, connecting those who wear it to the ancestral roots of Wales.
