Burberry’s tartan pattern copyright has been revoked in China, Time.com reported.

According to the article, China’s national trademark office reported that it revoked the copyright on Burberry’s tan, black and red tartan after a long battle with a Chinese company. 

The Trademark Office said that the copyright expired because Burberry had not used the pattern in China for over three years. Burberry spokesperson said the company will appeal the decision. Click to read the full statement from Burberry below.
