Woven and made in in Scotland on the Isle of Bute. These wraps are woven from premium quality soft, fine Merino wool.

Created to visibly represent the Declaration of Arbroath document!

- - -


The 7 colour tartan visibly portrays the artefact itself; light tan with the narrow black stripes represents the document and the literary work; green and red represents the seals and signatories; the white pivot represents the recipient of the letter Pope John XXII; the scarlet pivot represents the Scots of old who died fighting for freedom; the broad black stripe becomes a memorial of remembrance for those who fell on the Scottish battlefields.


The thread counts in the two opposing pivots are created from the two relevant dates: 6th April 1320 and 6th April 2020 - thus the numeracy in the tartan spans seven centuries.

32 threads in the dark red pays tribute to Robert the Bruce who was crowned king at the age of 32; 100 threads span the complete width of the light tan field, representing the famous excerpt from the Declaration of Arbroath “for, as long as a hundred of us remain alive…”

The tartan was officially Ratified on the 6th April 2020

Arbroath wrap

My husband bought me this wrap for Christmas. I absolutely love everything about it. It’s so warm and the Arbroath colours are perfect.
