About the Wright Family Tartan
The Wright name is one of the classic occupational surnames, from the Old English wyrhta, "a worker or shaper of wood" — the maker of ships, wheels and wagons. In the Highlands the same calling gave the Gaelic name Mac an t-Saoir, "son of the carpenter," which became MacIntyre, and Wright is its English counterpart. Those of the name are most fittingly matched with the MacIntyre tartan.
This collection brings the MacIntyre tartan into wearable apparel, everyday accessories, home decor and meaningful heritage gifts, honouring a name rooted in one of the oldest and most skilled of crafts.
Wright Tartan Pattern and Colours
Worn with the MacIntyre tartan, this collection draws on a handsome ground of green and blue crossed with red and black — the bold colours of Clan MacIntyre of Glen Noe, fitting for the Wrights who share their old craft and name.
Wright Heritage
The wright was among the most valued craftsmen of old Scotland: the wheelwright, the wainwright and the shipwright each shaped the timber on which farm, road and sea traffic depended. From this essential calling the surname Wright arose independently in many parts of Scotland and England, so that it became one of the most widespread of occupational names.
In the Gaelic west the same craft gave rise to Clan MacIntyre, Clann an t-Saoir, long seated at Glen Noe by Loch Etive in Argyll, whose chiefs were hereditary foresters and pipers. Because Wright is the English form of that name, those of the Wright name in Scotland are reckoned with the MacIntyres, and share in their proud Highland heritage.
