Circa 1850's Cameron of Erracht Kilt

[figheadair]

But back to Rocky's point -- good eye! -- the nineteenth century kilt in question is not Cameron of Erracht, but nor is it Carnegie. To me it looks the most like Wilsons' MacDonald of Glengarry, with yellow in place of white. But perhaps the stripe was originally white and has turned over time?

Any thoughts, Peter?

I completely missed that too. I think because the owner was a Cameron, and on a quick glace the sett is visually similar to the Erracht, I made the assumption.

The stripe in question looks to be silk which was a classic Wilsons' technique for paler lines in some pieces. If you look at the damaged section to the left of the sporran in your post you'll see the stripe looks white there so I'm inclined to think that this is Wilsons' Glengarry and that the white has yellowed the age and exposure which is something that silk does more readily that wool.
