The Gyle Tartan: A Modern Design
The Gyle tartan is a modern design, registered with the Scottish Register of Tartans but predating their official record-keeping system. Here's a breakdown of its interesting features:
-
Origin: Unlike many traditional tartans linked to specific clans, the Gyle tartan has a more recent origin. It wasn't designed to represent a family lineage but rather a place: The Gyle, a large shopping center near Edinburgh.
-
Design: The designer, Heather Nisbet, is credited for creating this tartan, though her age at the time (8 years old) makes the exact details a bit fuzzy.
-
Colors: The official description unfortunately doesn't detail the specific colors used in the Gyle tartan. However, retailers like CLAN offer the Gyle tartan in various "modern colors" across both woven and printed fabrics.
-
Availability: While not a clan tartan, the Gyle tartan is commercially available through various kiltmakers and Scottish goods retailers.
