Colour:
Shades: A softened, earthy palette featuring muted teal‑green and gentle olive tones, balanced with black and warm brown. Fine white and subdued yellow overlines add light contrast without breaking the muted harmony. These tones reflect the characteristic “muted” dye style, where colours are deliberately desaturated for a more natural, weathered appearance.
Design: A traditional MacKellar sett composed of alternating teal‑green and olive blocks, intersected with black bars and framed by yellow and white linework. The structure aligns with the established MacKellar pattern, with the muted palette providing a quieter, heritage‑toned variation of the original design.
Overall: A refined, muted tartan offering a calm, understated interpretation of the MacKellar design. Its softened colours enhance versatility, making it suitable for garments, accessories and interiors where a subtle, heritage‑aware presence is preferred.
