Flowers and ribbons elegantly flow across the silk in subtle hues of soft pink, nude, powder blue and pale leafy green.

Having worked alongside Christian Dior he become head of the couture house after his death at the age of only 21, and then followed by founding his own in 1962. Another iconic design was the ‘Mondrain’ dress, an innovative take on the modernist red white and blue artworks. His scarves reflected the designs in the clothing collections and often incorporated the logo within the pattern, as in ours. On a sumptuous silk soft to the touch. Backed in new 100% pure Irish linen, the aristocrat of textiles and certified by the Irish Linen Guild, lined in a layer of natural bamboo wadding, filled with new plush duck feather insert and a concealed zip. The traditional oatmeal color linen is a combination of the unbleached raw color of the natural flax plant on the weft intertwined with pristine white on the warp, resulting in a beautiful mottled effect. Would be a superb statement piece to one’s interior. Contemporary cushion (pillow) constructed with antique elements by using fragments of precious fabric.

It has been created from an up-cycled, recycled luxury fabric, used with the intentions of promoting a more eco-friendly environment by using already existing materials. We both celebrate and cherish the past and take care with rare and precious vintage and antique materials. Through layers of carefully added backing the delicate fabric has been fortified for longevity and thus preserved.
