Historical Significance

The Baru Tartan draws its inspiration from the deep-rooted history of Scottish clans, where tartans were not only a sign of allegiance but also a symbol of identity. Though there is no specific clan named Baru, many tartans were created to honor certain regions or families, becoming integral parts of Scottish heritage. Tartan patterns were often associated with clans and families as a mark of distinction, and they still evoke a strong sense of pride. The crest associated with this design includes a lion rampant, symbolizing bravery, and the clan's motto is "Per Ardua" ' meaning "Through Difficulties." The Baru Tartan reflects this spirit of perseverance and tradition.

Color Scheme & Pattern

The tartan consists of rich shades of deep purple, offset with dark green stripes, as well as thin white lines that create an intricate grid pattern. Purple in Scottish tartans is often associated with royalty and wealth, while the dark green and black evoke the rugged Scottish landscapes and the resilience of the people. The arrangement of the pattern forms large, bold squares that stand out while remaining timeless, making it perfect for any occasion, whether formal or casual. This design is made from 100% acrylic wool for durability and comfort.
