The MacDonell name comes from Glengarry, a narrow glen in the western Highlands running southwest from the Great Glen, and from the Gaelic Mac Dhomhnaill, son of Domhnall. The MacDonells of Glengarry were a branch of the great Clan Donald, tracing their descent in tradition to Somerled, and their motto, Creag an Fhithich, the Raven's Rock, names a specific outcrop in the glen that served as the clan's rallying point rather than an abstract virtue.

A name bound to the ruined walls of Invergarry Castle above Loch Oich and to a glen that sent its people to Culloden, through the Clearances, and on to Glengarry County in Ontario carries a history that's hard to replicate, and a MacDonell-marked gift is a small, tangible way of carrying that Highland connection forward.
Because the collection spans practical everyday items and more considered keepsakes, it works well for outfitting several relatives at once, grandparents, parents, and grandchildren alike, so the MacDonell name can be shared across the whole family rather than given to just one person.
