Tartan of the Month - Jul 12. What do you see?

Well it does not appear to be faded much for its age so it's been used predominantly out of sunlight or very little. Is there any chance that it is fabric that was ordered and never used?

I agree about the fading but it's very unlikely that any piece of 200 year old fabric/costume, with the possible exception of items assoiated with royalty, would have remained unused. Also, the damaged area in the upper left area of the pictures looks like wear and tear and not moth.
