Private order Dark Blue Bonnet

Traditional Scottish Blue Bonnet

These traditional bluebonnets are handcrafted locally by volunteers at Bannockburn Hous8e. They are made of pure wool and can be hand-washed. They have already been washed at 40-50 degrees Celsius as part of the felting process. With each washing, there may be some shrinkage, but that provides extra weatherproofing. We currently can provide two colours, the traditional light blue and a darker shade. 

We are more than happy to send products overseas. If postage is not available for your country at checkout, please get in touch with us at onlineshop@bannockburnhouse.scot for more information.

Here are some of our customers who proudly display their Blue Bonnets.

If you would like us to feature your image in the gallery, send it to Onlineshop@bannockburnhouse.scot and let us know you are happy for us to share it online.

The traditional bluebonnet was the customary headwear for Scotsmen for hundreds of years and was the item of clothing most closely associated with Scotland before tartan became so popular.
We have the option to supply one of our Handmade cockades with each bonnet. 
If you would like to order a Cockade on its own, check them out here

Bannockburn House is a Jacobite house, and the white cockade is a symbol of support for Bonnie Prince Charlie, who was garrisoned at the house. During his time there, he met Clementina Walkinshaw, who became his mistress and later bore him a daughter, Charlotte, Duchess of Albany.

Our YouTube channel has a quick video demonstrating how we make these bonnets: Blue Bonnet demonstration video.
