    Tartan ID?

    I was just wondering if anyone could identify this tartan, or tell me how to go about it?

    Thanks,

    P.S. The colours appear to be a muted (ancient?) red (possibly brown?), green, blue, blue, green, red, separated by black, and enclosed by white. I tried the reverse lookup at House of Tartan, but didn't find anything close.

    Thanks! Wow, I didn't know there were so many Hunting Frasers. The one i was looking for is the "Fraser Hunting Clan Tartan WR1659" in Ancient colours

    My first impression was also the Fraser Hunting tartan, I have a friend who wears this tartan, the predominant color in his kilt seems to be brown.

    Are there many variations of the Fraser Hunting?

    Lady Saltoun, the Chief of the names and arms of Fraser, has a nice page on her site about Fraser tartans:
