From the Pages of Tatler to the Modern Country House
Share
This season, Prince of Scots proudly celebrates a defining moment in the brand’s journey—being featured in consecutive issues of Tatler, one of the world’s most distinguished voices in luxury, style, and British culture.
In the May issue, Prince of Scots appeared in The Heart of the Home, a curated editorial celebrating interiors shaped by craftsmanship, heritage, and timeless design.
Now, in the June Royal Special featuring HRH The Prince of Wales on the cover, Prince of Scots is honored once again to appear within Chez Tatler, a showcase of refined living and enduring craftsmanship.
Together, these moments arrive at the perfect time—during the height of The Sporting Season.

The Season Returns
The British social season has long represented a celebration of style, sport, and ceremony—where heritage and modern life meet beneath summer skies. From Royal Ascot and the Derby to Wimbledon and garden parties across the countryside, these traditions continue to inspire a new generation drawn to timeless elegance and refined living.
For Prince of Scots, The Sporting Season is more than an event calendar. It is a philosophy of living well:
- gathering with friends,
- honoring craftsmanship,
- embracing tradition,
- and surrounding oneself with objects that carry story and permanence.
The modern country house remains not only relevant, but aspirational.
The Double Merino Black Watch Throw
A Tradition of Elegance
From Royal Ascot and summer garden parties to weekends in the countryside and evenings by the fire, The Sporting Season represents more than a calendar of events. It is a lifestyle rooted in heritage, refinement, and the quiet rituals of a life well lived.
- It is the crisp linen jacket draped over a chair after a long luncheon.
- The sound of horses in the paddock before the race begins.
- The glow of evening light across a country house library.
- The warmth of merino wool after the final toast of the evening.

Royal Ascot & The Modern Sporting Tradition
Royal Ascot remains one of the defining events of the British social calendar, where fashion, heritage, and sporting culture converge in extraordinary fashion.
From sharply tailored suiting and elegant millinery to refined hospitality and ceremonial pageantry, the atmosphere surrounding Ascot reflects the same values that inspire Prince of Scots:
craftsmanship, elegance, and enduring British style.
The Thoroughbred Throw was designed for these moments—quiet mornings in the country house library, evenings after the final race, and gatherings that blend timeless tradition with modern luxury.
These are the moments Prince of Scots was created to accompany.

The Thoroughbred Throw
A Modern Classic
Featured within the June issue of Tatler, the Prince of Scots Thoroughbred Throw captures the spirit of the modern country house with understated luxury and timeless appeal.
Woven in the United Kingdom from fine merino wool, the Thoroughbred Throw reflects the enduring traditions of British textile craftsmanship while embracing a relaxed, contemporary elegance suited for today’s interiors.
Inspired by equestrian heritage and refined sporting life, it is equally at home:
- draped across a leather chair in a library,
- folded beside a fire after an evening gathering,
- or carried outdoors for summer entertaining beneath the open sky.
Luxury, after all, is not about excess. It is about atmosphere, texture, and story.

Introducing the Antique Hunting Stewart Throw
Heritage Reimagined
This season also marks the launch of the Antique Hunting Stewart Throw, a tartan rich in tradition and beautifully suited to the evolving language of modern luxury.
Deep forest greens, navy tones, and subtle overchecks give the pattern a distinguished character that feels equally classic and current. Styled within warm interiors, libraries, and country retreats, the throw evokes the enduring romance of British sporting life while remaining effortlessly livable for contemporary homes.
As Tartan Week transitioned into the summer sporting calendar, Antique Hunting Stewart becomes more than a pattern—it becomes a statement of timeless style.

The Spirit of the Modern Country House
At Prince of Scots, we believe luxury should feel lived in rather than staged.
- A softly worn leather chair.
- A crystal whisky glass resting beside a favorite book.
- Natural light filtering through the windows of a quiet library.
- A merino wool throw woven not merely for decoration, but for comfort, warmth, and memory.
This philosophy lies at the heart of both our collections and the world celebrated by Tatler.
The modern country house is not defined by trends. It is defined by permanence.
