KILTS
Our kilts are hand made to your specific measurements, from heavy
weight 16oz Strome kilt cloth, using 8 yards of cloth to achieve
that all important traditional swing to the kilt.
As part of your kilt package we offer adjustable garters with the flashes
made in the tartan to match your kilt.
We offer the 3 Cornish district tartans for our hand made to measure kilts,
and they are as follows:-
Cornish National
Each colour in the National Tartan has a special meaning:
White on Black for St. Pirans 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 finally the
light blue is for the sea surrounding Cornwall. This tartan is unmistakably
Cornish, even becoming instantly recognizable by many of our Scottish
cousins.
Cornish Hunting
The Hunting Tartan incorporates all the colours of the original National
Tartan but with a dark green background. However the blue of the sea becomes
the Royal Blue, which together with the Gold were the colours of the Cornish
Wrestlers. A subtler tartan for quieter folks!
St Piran Dress
Predominantly featuring the St Piran flag with the
familiar dress background colour of Ecru, this tartan
also has fine bands of red and dark green, combining
to create a crisp and very formal kilt.
