Journey into the heart of the Scottish Highlands in our Heritage Tartan design, Highlands at Dusk. Renowned Scottish textile designer Araminta Campbell found inspiration from her childhood holidays spent exploring the Scottish Highlands at her grandparent’s house and the gorgeous views during sunset. This tartan captures the breathtaking drama as the Scottish highland skies deepen into dusk. A display of stunning dark blues interwoven with a bold red overcheck, mirroring the rugged mountain silhouettes against the setting sun. The clouds catch fire with warm tones that slowly fade into gentle greys, a sight that never fails to leave Araminta in awe.
Araminta’s artistry shines through in her use of natural plant dyes, where every drop is carefully harnessed to create varying depths of colour. The vibrant reds come from rich logwood and cochineal, saturating the yarn, while the delicate pinks emerge as the yarn absorbs the last whispers of dye. Oak bark and gallnuts lend their hues to complete this tapestry of colours. Immerse yourself in the Highland’s rugged beauty and the warm embrace of the sunset.
This tartan is the sister to Highlands at Dawn sharing the same design but crafted in two distinct colourways that mirror the shifting landscape.
