The colour palette of Wilsons of Bannockburn is attractive and traditional but harder to come by . Attached is photo of of Hof E WOB colour scheme in Lochaber tartan .

These are the shades that match those given in Wilsons' 1819 Key Pattern Book but interestingly, the only known specimen is much darker and closer to what we would normally think of modern colours.

You're right David. Hadn't spotted that on my tablet. That being the case I would revise my earlier coment and say that the shades are in the right area although the green is too bright for Wilsons' shades.
