Stock, Numbering & This Current Batch

STOCK IS IN for this latest run of Declaration scarves from the numbered edition.

The current allocation offered here is drawn from the late 900s into the early 1,000s out of an edition of 1,320 scarves. As this commemorative edition moves towards its conclusion, each new batch becomes more scarce.

This run of scarves is certified with the date 6 April 2024 – TARTAN DAY – the modern celebration of the Declaration of Arbroath, signed 6 April 1320.

 

Once they’re gone, they’re gone.

 

Number allocation: scarves are sold as the lowest available number first from the stock I have in hand. Due to demand and practical administration, I’m currently unable to offer the option to choose a specific number for your order.

 





The Story Woven in the Declaration Tartan

The Declaration lambswool scarves are made from the first tartan created to visibly express the proportions of two flags of Scotland: the Ancient Saltire and the Lion Rampant (the Royal Standard of Scotland).

Every thread in the design is rooted in the story of Arbroath 1320 and Scotland’s long struggle for self-determination. Worn as a scarf, the cloth becomes a personal link to that history – a small, everyday way to carry the Declaration’s spirit of freedom.

  • The famous “freedom” quote from the Declaration of Arbroath (6 April 1320) printed on a small wallet-sized card:
    "for, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom – for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."
  • Embossed and numbered certificate of authenticity – signed by the designer and enclosed in a wee gold envelope.

 





Numbering & Availability

Edition size: 1,320 numbered scarves.

Current stock: late 900s / early 1,000s (while this batch lasts).

Scarves are sold as the lowest available number first from the current stock in hand. At this time, due to demand and the realities of administration, I’m unable to offer specific number requests for individual orders.

As the edition nears its conclusion, each new batch becomes a little more special. When the numbered edition is finished, no further scarves will be produced in this format.

 





Please Note – Rationale Booklet Update

Due to production changes, the original small paginated and stapled booklet (shown in some older product photos) has now been superseded with a folded concertina booklet.

The full rationale is also supplied on an A4 printed sheet, rolled together with a copy of the official Scottish Register of Tartans certificate for the Declaration tartan, and accompanied by the wallet-sized quote card and the signed, embossed certificate of authenticity in its wee gold envelope.
