About This Tartan
In view of its widespread use as a foundation for other tartans it is perhaps not surprising that Wilson's named the Mackintosh tartan 'Caledonian'. They also called it 'Lovat or Fraser'. For this reason the tartan is not suitable for persons seeking a Caledonian tartan unless they are also Frasers of Lovat or Mackintoshes.
