Description

Product Name: Buchanan Tartan retailer Handfasting Ribbon

The Buchanan name has been grounded in the lands surrounding the shores of Loch Lomond since 1225, when a grant by the Earls of Lennox to Sir Absalon of Buchanan, referred to in contemporaneous sources as ‘clericus meus' i.e. he was a clergyman.

The derivation of the name in Gaelic lends validity to such a claim: ‘Buth chanain' is Gaelic for the ‘House of the Canon', an indication that the first Buchanan's may have been a family that was dedicated to the service of the ancient Celtic church, or may have had a pre-charter, hereditary clerical tenure. Furthermore, the clan can trace its origins back to Anselan O Kyan, son of a King of Ulster who landed in Argyll circa 1016. For his services against the Danes he received the lands of Buchanan, lying to the east of Loch Lomond.

The Buchanans supported the Bruce in the war of independence, thus assuring the predominance of the family in the post-Banockburn era. The Buchanan shield is virtually indistinguishable from the Royal Arms of Scotland, with a significant difference. The Buchanan version of the arms changes the lion and the double treasure of fleur de lis from red to black, thought to be an allusion to the marriage of Sir Walter Buchanan to the only daughter of Murdoch, Duke of Albany and Regent of Scotland.

A charm of your choice can be added to your handfasting cord.

I make all of my handfasting cords myself in a smoke retailer free home. I do, however, have a dog and she is with me constantly.
