Ou Phrontis Certificate of Authenticity

Ou povtis or Ou Phrontis is a Greek phrase meaning ‘no worries’ or ‘who cares’, and was carved by TE Lawrence above the doorway to his Dorset home, Clouds Hill. In keeping with the ethos of Lawrence, we at Lawrence’s Seven Pillars of Khaki care to assure our customers of our values and promises as a responsible Heritage brand in offering a ‘no worries’ Ou Phrontis Certificate of Authenticity with every tartan purchase.
