About this record match
The official record supports the underlying named tartan. It does not by itself confirm that the Colquhoun Modern catalogue colourway uses the identical registered threadcount or colour treatment.

Design & colour
Broad green, black, and blue bands anchor the sett. Finer red and grey lines cross through them, adding rhythm, contrast and definition to the repeating pattern.
The green, black, and blue tones form the foundation, while red and grey sharpen the design. Repeated across the horizontal and vertical, these lines build the balanced check that gives the tartan its character.
Colour swatches show broad colour families and may differ from the exact woven shade.
