Registration notes: Designed by Erik Robert Totté to commemorate his family’s history. The Totté family originated in France and this branch of the family moved to Belgium. The tartan was inspired by time spent in Scotland by the designer's great grandfather during the First World War. Mr Totté’s father bought a plot of land in Hofstade, between Antwerp and Brabant, located beyond the Provincial border, Baerebeeck. The house and land have been sold but this branch of the family are still known as Totté d'Hofstade de Baerebeeck. The pattern and colours represent the family’s spirit of freedom, pride and overcoming of adversity out of the dark and into the light. Colours: black is for the past war and loss; red is for hope; yellow is for light; green is for nature; blue is for nurturing water.
Woven Sample: A woven sample of this tartan has been received by the Scottish Register of Tartans for permanent preservation in the National Records of Scotland.
