Scottish Tartans World Register: MacDonald of the Isles

MacDonald of the Isles Clan Tartan WR1366
|
|
| The design first appeared in the Vestiarium Scoticum and
is different from earlier setts attributed to the Lord of the
Isles or to any of the Clan Donald branches. It is not
generally regarded as a clan tartan. The Sobieski Stuart
brothers who published the Vestiarium claimed to be the
heirs to a manuscript once in the hands of Prince Charles
Edward himself but the original was never produced for
public examination. The book appears to be a curious
mixture of fact and fiction in keeping with the romantic
ideology.
