About the Dyce Family Tartan
The Dyce name is a Scottish territorial name, taken from the lands and parish of Dyce in Aberdeenshire, on the north bank of the River Don a few miles above Aberdeen. From these lands the family took their name in the old Scottish way.
As a family name rather than a Highland clan, Dyce is most fittingly matched with a family or Aberdeenshire district tartan. This collection brings a fitting Scottish tartan into wearable apparel, accessories, home decor and heritage gifts.
Dyce Tartan Pattern and Colours
This collection draws on deep greens with darker lines and a cool accent — the green of the Don valley farmland and the grey of the granite that built the city downstream.
Dyce Heritage
The parish of Dyce lies on the Don north of Aberdeen, and its old kirk of St Fergus, now a ruin, holds two carved Pictish stones — a reminder that this quiet corner of Aberdeenshire was settled and worked long before written record.
From these lands the surname passed to families in the north-east, and Dyces appear in the records of Aberdeen and the surrounding country through the centuries. Among the best known was William Dyce, born in Aberdeen in 1806, one of the leading Scottish painters of his day and a key figure in art education in Britain.
