LADIES AUTHENTIC HARRIS TWEED YELLOW, GREEN & BROWN DOGTOOTH SMALL CLASP PURSE

Harris Tweed Hand Woven in Outer Hebrides. 

UistBarraFor centuries the inhabitants of the Outer Hebrides of Scotland, on the islands of Lewis, Harris, and , have hand woven a beautiful and intricate cloth the world knows simply as Harris Tweed.

It is the only fabric protected by an Act of Parliament.  This strictly outlines the conditions in which the cloth can be genuinely made.  Authentic Harris Tweed is issued with the famous Harris Tweed Orb Mark after inspection by the Harris Tweed Authority.  The Orb Mark is the United Kingdom's oldest trademark.

Harris Tweed is a tweed cloth that is handwoven by islanders at their homes in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland, finished in the Outer Hebrides, and made from pure virgin wool dyed and spun in the Outer Hebrides.  This definition, quality standards and protection of the Harris Tweed name are enshrined in the Harris Tweed Act 1993.
