    What's this tartan and what else do you see?

    What's this tartan and what else do you see? Should be a pretty easy one.

    Two different weights? Heavier for the seat and arms?

    To me, it looks like the fabric covering the seat was added subsequently; it appears inexpertly pinned to the chair; not really "upholstered" in a professional sense.
    It also looks like a different sett, or at least a different size of sett. It's certainly not the same fabric as the back. You wouldn't be able to line them up.

    The Tartan on the wall and the chair is Mackintosh, although that which is upholstered is faded (perhaps the lighting?). As well, the sett of the bed skirt is not the same. I can't quite make it out, but it may be Drummond-Perth / Drummond of Perth.

    The coat of arms looks like Mackintosh or Chattan as well.

    I SEE IT! It's a little monkey!

    Or is it a turtle.

    Almost the same thing anyway.

    Chattan or Mackintosh? Looks like cats one either side.

    Also looks like two cat heads facing out under the chair finials.

    The wall tartan does look like Mackintosh. Chair is very faded and I'm not good at patterns with color shift in my tartan guesses...but I'll go with...not Mackintosh or Chattan. The one on the table (oops bed!) is different too.
