Historical Context

The Pitcairn Hunting Ancient Tartan is a timeless design representing the long history of the Pitcairn family, a distinguished Scottish clan with roots tracing back to the medieval period. Known for their loyalty and service to the crown, the Pitcairn family has played a significant role in Scottish history. Their clan motto, “Plena Refulget” (Full shines), symbolizes the pride and brilliance of the family, while their crest, depicting a hawk’s head, represents sharp vision and nobility. The hunting tartan variation, often created for practical outdoor use, also connects to the clan’s bond with the land and hunting tradition.
