About The Cornish National Ancient Tartan
This tartan was designed by a Cornish bard in answer to criticism of the plain black kilts first introduced by Cornish patriots.
Each colour in the National Tartan has a special meaning: White on Black for St. Piran's Banner (The Patron Saint of Tinners), Black and Gold were the colours of the ancient Cornish kings; red is for the beak and legs of the Chough, the Cornish National bird and blue is for the sea surrounding Cornwall.
Universal Tartan
Cornish National Ancient is a universal tartan, which means it is not associated with any specific clan or family and can be worn by anyone!
