The Black Stewart tartan is a predominantly black and red tartan with blue, green, yellow, and white.
This West Highland family descends from Sir James Stewart of Pierson who was descended from the 4th High Steward of Scotland. For a time they were Lords of Lorne and were of importance in their Western territory. They were Royalists and fought valiantly for the Royal Stewarts. Duncan Stewart, 2nd of Appin, was Chamberlain of the Isles to King James IV. They fought under Montrose at the Battle of Inverlochy, and in the Jacobite army at Sheriffmuir in 1715. During the 1745 Rising the clan served in Prince Charlie’s army.
The 9th chief sold the estate in 1765.

+ Officially termed the Government Tartan, for over 270 years this famous plaid has been worn by Scottish Soldiers, most recently by the Royal Regiment of Scotland founded in 2006. Its origins date back to 1725 when on the advice of Captain Wade, Commander in Chief of North Britain, King George I ordered a raising of a ‘Watch’ comprising six Independent Companies and a uniform “to provide Plaid Cloathing and Bonnets in the Highland Dress”. Through the centuries, the tartan known as Black Watch has been worn widely by Highland Military units, from Rob Roy’s sons in the Independent Companies and by The Thin Red Line at Balaklava. This elegant plaid has long been a symbol of loyalty, courage and sacrifice.
