Brand History & Trademark Analysis

Harris Tweed is protected in the UK by an Act of Parliament — the Harris Tweed Act 1993 — and bears the Orb trademark administered by the Harris Tweed Authority. It is one of the few textiles in the world protected by its own legislation. To carry the mark, the tweed must be hand-woven by islanders at their homes in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland, using locally dyed and spun virgin wool.
