Looking for County Fife tartan

[Dranoweb]

Hi,
I have an upcoming wedding and have found it difficult to locate a sash or scarf in county Fife tartan.
We have located manufacturers that will weave it, however the budget will not accommodate $2000+ for the minimum run.

I figured I should ask the experts before giving up entirely on this.

I have searched the forums, to no avail - bar a few short references to "Fife" but out of context in this regard.

Thanks in advance...

More specifically associated with the Kinman clan - this being the modern spelling.

Duke of Fife aka Fife District.

From the Ferret

From a pattern book of Fraser Ross & Co., Glasgow c.1870-1880. Sample in McGregor Hastie Collection at STS. Duchess of Fife #781 is the same but with blue in place of black. Said to have been designed for the celebration of the wedding of Louise, the Princess Royal, daughter of Edward VII, and grand daughter of Queen Victoria, to Alexander Duff, the first Duke of Fife. The sett differs slightly from the modern district tartan. Referred to as Fife District in 'Tartans' by Johnston/Smith 1999.

Woven by House of Edgar in modern colors 13 oz weight.

You can order a plaid or a ladies scarf from House of Edgar.

The tartan is listed under kilt fabric, medium weight clan tartan, Duke of Fife.

Thanks for the speedy reply - at least one of those links looks familiar - but I will have to consult the "wedding planner" and be sure of any variations.

Thankyou once again for the assistance
