On the Design:

This piece features a gray field with noticeable striae underscoring an all-over repeat of floral patterns in cool grisailles, blue, and slate tones. Though this form represents a more minimalist approach, admirers of the craft and keen eyes will note inspiration from the many provenances known for repeating floral patterns in dense, deftly woven designs, as this is a thoughtful and elegant new take on a traditional look.

The luxurious wool-and-silk blend further creates a more elegant play of the light. The block printing process is one of the oldest in textile design and has seen many adaptations. To wit, our designs draw on time-honored, even archaic designs, such as 17th-century Mughal rug patterns that allow admirers of the craft to recreate old-world charm within any space. See less
