Orkney/Firth tartan

[figheadair]

The choice of Modern or Ancient colours is entirely down to your own preference. Other people's opinions are just that and as they aren’t going to wear it I recommend not taking too much notice of what they say. As a 'fashion tartan' I have not idea if the Orkney tartan is available from stock but if it is then you would be best served to get hold of some actual samples and view them under a number of different lighting conditions. If it is not available ex-stock then you are looking at a special weave and therefore can have any colour range.
