What's in a name or colour? The hues of brown are many: tan, biscuit, caramel, mushroom, chocolate, russet, tawny, coppery, copper, nut-brown, bronze... We've gathered those tartan notebooks we have that fall into this category and wonder if we should add more. Brown shoes are often worn with kilts of all tartans and look good.

Waverley Scotland Genuine Tartan Cloth Commonplace Notebook – Gordon Red WeatheredOur price: £9.99The Gordon Red Weathered tartan blends slate greys and earthy browns with a vibrant red banding and slim white highlights.The first record of this very old Scottish clan name is from the 12th century, that of Richard, Lord of the Barony of Gordon in the Merse, which was part of what we now know as Berwickshire. However, since then, the clan’s association has been with lands in Aberdeenshire.It is said that the progenitor of the Gordon clan is Richard’s descendant Sir Adam Gordon (d. 1333). During the wars of independence, he backed William Wallace in 1297 and, after renouncing his support of Edward I, also supported Robert the Bruce. In 1320, Gordon and Sir Edward Mabinson were bearers of three letters to the Pope asserting the independence of the Kingdom of Scotland, dated at Aberbrothock (Arbroath) on the 6th of April. One of these letters was the famous Declaration of Arbroath, signed and sealed by 51 nobles. It failed to convince the pope to lift his excommunication of Scotland but it is an eloquent and influential expression of nationhood. Bruce granted Gordon the lordship of Strathbogie in Aberdeenshire, which was then renamed Huntly, after a village on Gordon’s Berwickshire estate. Gordon was killed during the Battle of Halidon Hill (1333). The Gordon Red tartan is sometimes referred to as “the Huntly tartan”. The Gordon Red Weathered tartan is a design that is intended to emulate the colours of an antique and original remnant of Gordon Red tartan fabric. The muted colours are replicated using natural dyes, and are intended to look faded with age. As their name suggests, weathered tartans are lighter in tone. The end result is a more natural and authentic look to the colourway of the tartan. 
Waverley Scotland Genuine Tartan Cloth Commonplace Notebook – HolyroodOur price: £9.99The Holyrood tartan is a blend of blues, greys and brown fretted with yellow.The Holyrood Tartan was created in 1977 to coincide with the celebration of the Silver Jubilee of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s Coronation (2nd June, 1953). The sett is based on Royal Stewart but with navy blue as the predominant colour, and overchecks of brown, light blue, green, gold and white. Holyrood is an area in Edinburgh, where Holyrood Palace (also called the Palace of Holyroodhouse), the ruins of Holyrood Abbey, Holyrood Park and the Scottish Parliament are situated. Holyrood Palace is the Queen’s official Scottish residence and it is located in the Canongate area at the foot of the Royal Mile, the street so named because it runs for one mile between Holyrood Palace and Edinburgh Castle. The site was originally of a monastery founded by King David I of Scotland in 1128. He chose this spot on which to build it because he is said to have seen a haily ruid (anglicised to holy rood), meaning holy cross, in the sky over this location. Here, many of the kings of Scotland were crowned, married or buried. The Palace itself was built in 1498, then severely damaged in 1544 by the Earl of Hertford’s troops and again a century later by Cromwell’s army and restored in the 1670s by Sir William Bruce on the orders of Charles II.The year of the Queen’s Silver Jubilee was marked by many celebrations, and Her Majesty made tours all over the British Isles and the Commonwealth to meet her subjects. Each year, the Queen hosts “Holyrood Week” – usually from the end of June to the beginning of July – to celebrate Scottish culture and achievements, and which includes a garden party at the Palace of Holyroodhouse.About the notebook: This notebook is made with cloth woven in mills in the United Kingdom.

Waverley Scotland Genuine Tartan Cloth Commonplace Notebook – Kinloch AndersonOur price: £9.99The Kinloch Anderson tartan is a rich combination of earthy browns, greens and golds, with a bold vein of dark red.Kinloch Anderson was founded in 1868 when William Anderson, a tailor and maker of fine clothing, opened his first prestigious shop in George Street, Edinburgh. From modest beginnings, the company has achieved a unique place in the Scottish textile and fashion industry, managed by the sixth generation of the family. For a century-and-a-half, Kinloch Anderson has been instrumental in maintaining the status of Highland dress. In the 20th century, the company developed an expertise in military tailoring and made officers’ uniforms for all the Scottish regiments. Kinloch Anderson is now a worldwide lifestyle heritage brand identifying itself as “British Style – Scottish Character”.

The company is proud to have Royal Warrants of Appointment as tailors and kiltmakers to HM The Queen, HRH The Duke of Edinburgh, and HRH The Prince of Wales.Deirdre Kinloch Anderson, a director of the company, was the leading architect of the official Scottish Register of Tartans. Until 2009, the recording of tartans was carried out by private organisations. Deirdre led the project to ensure that the recording and codification of tartans was placed in the public domain, safeguarding Scotland’s tartan heritage in perpetuity. It took seven years and a Private Member’s Bill to enable the establishment of the register, held within the National Archives of Scotland.Kinloch Anderson has created its own exclusive range of tartans, available to all, which includes the design pictured above – the Kinloch Anderson Tartan.About the notebook: This notebook is made with cloth woven in mills in the United Kingdom.

Waverley Scotland Genuine Tartan Cloth Commonplace Notebook – MacDuff Modern HuntingOur price: £9.99The Macduff Modern Hunting tartan’s blue glows out against a background of dark browns and hints of green, shot through with bold reds.Before the clan system was fully recognised, the MacDuff Earls of Fife were the greatest family in Scotland. MacDuff, 1st Earl of Fife, was held to be the Earl of Fife who opposed Macbeth (1040–1057) and assisted Malcolm to the throne of Scotland. The centre of MacDuff power was the kingdom of Fife, and they held extensive lands in the northeast and in the Lowlands. The MacDuffs held the ancient privilege of crowning the kings of Scotland on the ancient Stone of Scone, the right to bear the red lion rampant of the royal house, and the right to lead the front rank of the Scottish army. They could also claim the right of reprieve for the crime of murder, for a modest payment, or the right of sanctuary at the Cross of MacDuff near Newburgh, Fife.Clan Duff claims to be of the original Royal Scoto-Pictish line. The line ended in 1353 with the death of Duncan IV, and the Earldom of Fife was passed to the House of Stewart in 1371. In 1759 the earldom of Fife returned to the Duff family when William Duff, Lord Braco (1697–1763) received the title Earl Fife in the Peerage of Ireland. In 1733 he bought a settlement called Doune on the Moray Firth that in 1783 became known as MacDuff. He bought Duff House, Banff (designed by William Adam) though he never lived in it. His son James, 2nd Earl Fife (1729–1809) completed the building of the house. In the 1817, James, 4th Earl Fife (1776–1857), renamed the town of Mortlach in Moray as Dufftown.The MacDuff tartan, above, is the “hunting” version of their clan tartan, modern colours. Hunting tartans replace the most prominent colour in the main tartan with darker colours like green and blue.

Waverley Scotland Genuine Tartan Cloth Commonplace Notebook – Stewart Modern Camel (pocket)Our price: £9.99The Stewart Modern
Camel tartan featured on this notebook is predominantly light brown in colour,
with white black and red, and has a light and contemporary feel to it. It is one of over 30
tartans associated with Clan Stewart. The differences incorporate different
branches, different areas of origin and further variations using labels such as
“dress” and “hunting”. The name Stewart
reflects the Clan’s illustrious origins. The original family name, from
Brittany, had been fitz Alan. Walter fitz Alan (1110–1177) was High Steward of
Scotland during the reign of David I (1124–1153). The name Stewart is derived
from the title of that office, and Walter (d. 1246), 3rd High Steward of
Scotland took Stewart as the family surname.
