The Rowanberry Tartan pocket notebook celebrates Scotland's rowan tree that is famed for its hardiness and ability to survive in the hills and mountains of Scotland, and for its long history. In Scottish Gaelic it is called 'rudha-an', meaning 'red one'. This is one of Kinloch Anderson's house tartans and part of Waverley's Scottish Traditions range.
The tartan is woven in Scotland. In Scotland the berries are red whereas in Asia there are some species where the berries are a golden yellow. This pocket notebook contains a bookmark and map of Scotland, and an inner note holder at the back.With 176 pages, the left hand page is white, and the right is ruled. This high quality notebook makes a good gift to the visitor (and to oneself). It is useful for notes, obviously, but also good for the artist and writer.
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.
