Clan Turnbull's founding legend tells of an ancestor who seized a charging bull by the horns to save Robert the Bruce, earning the name and lands in the Rule Water valley of Roxburghshire in the Scottish Borders. Their motto, Audax et Fidelis, Bold and Faithful, carried across the Atlantic with the American Trumbull line, producing Jonathan Trumbull, the only colonial governor to back the American Revolution, and his son John Trumbull, whose Revolutionary War paintings now hang in the US Capitol.
Explore Turnbull Scottish heritage designs across t-shirts and sweatshirts, ceramic ornaments, garden flags, an engraved charcuterie board, a banner pennant, a framed silver ornament, a cork coaster set, a novelty license plate, an insulated tumbler, a printed throw blanket, an accent mug, a woven blanket, a cap, and a phone case. Wearable pieces, drinkware, home accents, and keepsakes give plenty of ways to keep the Turnbull name close, whatever the occasion.
These pieces suit birthdays, retirements, clan gatherings, graduations, and holiday giving alike, offering a way to mark an occasion with something rooted in real family history rather than a generic present.
A name built on a legend of real courage, and carried by governors and painters on both sides of the Atlantic, gives the Turnbull name a story worth passing on, and a Turnbull-marked gift is a way of keeping that Border heritage present in everyday life.
Because the collection spans practical everyday pieces and more considered keepsakes, it's easy to shop for several relatives at once, so grandparents, parents, and grandchildren can each carry a piece of the Turnbull name.
