Caledonia Ancient
It is possible that this was one of the tartans favoured by the fashionable ladies of Edinburgh, who disapproved of the Act of Union and were anti-government and pro-Jacobite in their sympathies. As a sign of their feelings, they were wont to wear tartan plaids and silken scarves. Since it belongs to no clan, it is one of those setts which anyone not possessing a tartan of his or her own is entitled to wear. It's age is unknown but it almost certainly existed at the beginning of the 18th century.
