As the name suggests, a complex arrangement of geometric forms is depicted in different yarns. The three coloured nature of the design, good durability and the pleasing scale make it eminently useable for furniture.
A favourite embroidery stitch technique has been reinterpreted as a woven fabric. “Grains” of polished yarn sit against the mat ground giving a three dimensional effect. With excellent wearability and an inspiring colour palette, “rice stitch” is bound to become a classic.
The natural look of this weighty twill weave contrasts beautifully against the complex nature of the other prints and wovens in this season’s collection. It’s scale and sophisticated mix of yarns make it suitable for both country and more contemporary furniture.
Small scale patterns are often used for obi, which are often a very conspicuous accessory in contemporary Japanese dress. We have reworked a traditional brick design, arranging the motifs into stripes of shifting colours. Printed on 100% linen the three colourways can be used for both curtailing and upholstery.
