Summary
| Description |
English: This is an illustration of a tartan herringbone selvedge along the bottom of piece of tartan (e.g. a belted plaid). The design used is the 1745 Culloden tartan sample, in its approximate original colours. That surviving artifact piece of cloth does not have a selvedge like this (though the complete original garment might have). This tartan was selected for this illustration simply because it is 18th-century tartan and herringbone selvedges on tartan go back to at least the 18th century. This sort of tartan selvedge preserves the sett colours and pattern right up to the edge of the garment.
This image is full-sett, and can tile horizontally, but cannot tile vertically. |
