Tweed is a woven, woollen cloth which originated in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. Today the 'Tweed Look' is very popular but many manufacturers are producing copy cloths, often made in the Far East, with a high polyester content - this is not real Tweed. Harris Tweed, the original Tweed cloth, is made using pure, new Scottish wool and is available in many vibrant colours and patterns. This is because the wool is dyed in base colours and practically any shade of yarns can be produced by blending the coloured wool. These intermingled yarns make Harris Tweed unlike any other fabric. Other fabrics are made from yarn dyed in just single colours. It is this unique mixing process which gives Harris Tweed its extraordinary richness. The cloth is then handwoven in the weavers' homes. Each genuine Harris Tweed product bears the famous Harris Tweed Orb mark.
Glen Appin of Scotland only uses Harris Tweed to produce its stunning range of Tweed bags and purses. The company is proud to support the island community which makes this beautiful handwoven cloth.
