Waverley Scotland – författare

This Waverley notebook celebrates the traditional Scottish song 'Auld Lang Syne' sung worldwide at New Year and weddings, and is bound in Auld Lang Syne tartan cloth, woven in the UK. With 92 pages, the mini notebook comes with a retractable pen, and a songbook with four Scottish songs. Parts of `Auld Lang Syne’ dates back to 1500 but Robert Burns contributed the song to the 1796 publication `Scots Musical Museum’.`Auld Lang Syne’ translates as `old long since’ and means `times gone by’. Thesong asks whether old friends and times will be forgotten, andpromises to remember people of the past with fondness: `Forauld lang syne, we’ll tak’ a cup o’ kindness yet.’ It is the most commonly sung song for English-speakers on New Year’s Eve, popularized by band leader Guy Lombardo in New York in the mid 1920s, who first heard it sung by immigrant Scots in London, Ontario, Canada. It is now a New Year tradition sung around the world.

This Waverley notebook celebrates 'Red Red Rose', the poem and song by Robert Burns, and is bound in Burns Check tartan cloth, woven in the UK. With 92 pages, the mini notebook comes with a retractable pen, and a song book with four Scottish songs (Auld Lang Syne; A Red Red Rose; Skye Boat Song; Flower of Scotland).“A Red, Red Rose” is a 1794 song by Robert Burns, based on traditional sources. The song is often published as a poem, and is one of the most famous verses to be associated with Burns. Towards the end of his life, Robert Burns worked to preserve traditional Scottish songs for the future, contributing to the Scots Musical Museum, and A Select Collection of Original Scottish Airs for the Voice. Burns gave the song to singer Pietro Urbani for it to be published in his Scots Songs, and referred to it as a “simple old Scots song which I had picked up in the country.”The lyrics describe a love that is both vital and enduring. The symbolism of rocks melting with the sun, and the seas running dry, evokes the passing of millions of years, and it has been suggested draws on concepts developed around this time – the time of the Scottish Enlightenment – by geologist James Hutton. In 2008, when asked for the source of his greatest creative inspiration, Bob Dylan, American singer songwriter, selected “A Red, Red Rose”, as the lyrics that had the biggest effect on his life. The song is unrelentingly popular.

Dress Stewart tartan: The Dress Stewart tartan cloth used to bind this notebook is a Dress version of the Royal Stewart. It is an 'arisaid' sett or pattern and that means it was worn in a dress pattern and therefore considered a feminine version of the historical masculine belted plaid. The white-based tartans influenced dance and dress tartans. Queen Victoria loved the tartan and her use of it made the tartan become fashionable and established. Just as King George IV's visit to Edinburgh in 1822 was pivotal in tartan becoming fashionable again, after its ban, then so was Queen Victoria's influence in bringing the Stewart tartan into the lasting prominence it enjoys today. Queen Victoria and Prince Albert fell in love with the Highlands and purchased Balmoral Castle in 1848 plus the surrounding land. Balmoral has been the Scottish home of the Royal Family ever since. Prince Albert used the red and Royal Stewart tartan for carpets, together with the green Hunting Stewart tartan and the red and white Dress Stewart for the curtains and upholstery. The presence of the royal castle in Balmoral has greatly increased the worldwide appeal of Scotland as a holiday destination and has also helped to create interest in the story of Scotland's clans and tartans. The mini notebook with pen is ideal for quick notes and is a handy size; light and easy to carry.

This Large Dress Stewart Tartan Notebook (21x 13cm) with 192 pages from Waverley Scotland has left page blank, right page ruled. Queen Victoria adopted the Dress Stewart tartan and it became wildly popular.The paper is FSC 80 gsm smooth cream paper from sustainable forests. It was genuine British cloth, with elastic closure, ribbon marker, eight perforated end leaves and expandable inner note holder. A removable booklet about the history of the clan tartans, and a bookmark that gives information on the Dress Stewart tartan.It is an arisaid sett of Royal Stewart tartan - a Dress version of the Royal Stewart. Dress tartans often exhanged the key part of the sett with white to achieve a more formal look. These white tartans were known as arisaids (or arasaids) worn as a dress - a long feminine version of the masculine belted plaid. King George IV's visit in 1822 was pivotal in the tartan story, and Queen Victoria was to bring her own influence on tartan. Queen Victoria was crowned Queen in 1838. The Queen and Prince Albert visited Scotland in 1842, and Queen Victoria was excited by the novels of Sir Walter Scott and in love with the idea of the Highlands. Queen Victoria and Prince Albert fell in love with the Highlands, and purchased Balmoral in 1848, and the land surrounding it. A new castle was completed in 1856 and it has been the Scottish home of the Royal Family ever since. At Balmoral, Prince Albert personally took care of the interior design, where he made great use of tartan. He utilised the red Royal Stewart and green Hunting Stewart tartans for carpets, and the Dress Stewart for curtains and upholstery. The Queen designed the Victoria tartan, and Prince Albert designed the Balmoral tartan which remains the exclusive tartan of the Sovereign of the United Kingdom today. The Dress Stewart tartan was in existence when Victoria became Queen, but became wildly popular after it was adopted by Queen Victoria and the ladies of the royal household at Balmoral. The tartan became very fashionable. By establishing an annual royal residence at Balmoral, the royal family greatly increased the appeal of Scotland as a tourist destination and helped to spread the use of tartan far beyond the borders of Scotland. The tartan cloth is supplied with the authority of Kinloch Anderson Scotland, holders of Royal Warrants of Appointment and is woven in the United Kingdom. Today Waverley Scotland has over 90 styles across 40 clans and 20 themed tartans.
