Description - Castle Grey Tartan: Pocket: 14 x 9cm: Scottish Traditions: Waverley Genuine Tartan Cloth Commonplace Notebook by Waverley

This Castle Grey Tartan pocket real cloth tartan notebook is part of the Scottish Traditions series. It has four shades of grey with a red and white over check to represent the grey stone and colour of Edinburgh castle. The cloth, one of Leith-based Kinloch Anderson's house tartans range, was inspired by the castle. This pocket notebook contains a bookmark and map of Scotland, and an inner note holder at the back. The left hand page is blank and the right hand side is lined. This notebook makes a good gift for a visitor to Edinburgh, and Scotland, as well as a high quality notebook for writers, artists and lovers of notebooks. It will also appeal to those looking for non-clan specific tartans. Early weavers used local plants and natural products for their dyes so the locality of the weaver affected the colours of the local tartan. The genuine tartan cloth used for this notebook is supplied by and produced with the authority of Kinloch Anderson Scotland. Commonplace notebooks date back to the Scottish Enlightenment. Every thinker used a Commonplace notebook for ideas and knowledge. Adam Smith, Robert Burns, David Hume, and later, writers such as Sir Walter Scott, Arthur Conan Doyle, and Virginia Woolf used commonplace notebooks. Each notebook contains a bookmark with details on the tartan and a pocket enclosure.
