Cornish tartans are the only ones in the world to feature a national flag. The original Cornish tartan was designed by the Cornish bard E. E. Morton-Nance in the 1950s, and is accepted worldwide as the Cornish national tartan. The tartan was commissioned by the Cornish Gorsedd. The black and gold signify the colours of the ancient Cornish kings. The red represents the Cornish chough; the silver thread signifies the tin that, together with the black, makes St Piran's cross. The strip of bardic blue is symbolic of the sea and the industries of the sea.
