Pure wool Harris Tweed is protected by an Act of Parliament and can only be woven at the homes of the island weavers living in Scotland’s remote Outer Hebrides, with wool spun and dyed in that same beautiful landscape.
As the saying goes, "From the Land Cometh the Cloth" and for generations the rich hues of nature have inspired the island weavers to blend and hand-weave exquisite, timeless fabrics. Each thread is, unusually, dyed before it is spun, which gives the cloth it’s unmistakable richness and depth of colour.
Always look for the genuine Harris Tweed label with the Orb trade mark and certification of origin.
