About MeThis chalk bag was part of a new collection released by Laura Sherriffs in September 2020 inspired by the Cairngorm plateau and the writings of Nan Shepherd in ‘The Living Mountain’. The Cairngorms are Laura’s favourite place and during the Covid-19 pandemic lockdown she could not travel there so this collection was a love letter to the Cairngorms. The colours used to make the bag reflect the colours of the Cairngorms.
