The Artisan Collection
Simple, geometric prints inspired by the Japanese art of Shibori
My Artisan Collection of simple geometric printed fabrics and Wall Coverings is inspired by the eighth century Japanese art of Shibori. The dictionary defines an Artisan as someone who performs skilled work with their hands, and this collection of simple geometric fabrics and wall coverings has been inspired by the eighth century Japanese art of Shibori.
The original designs were created by folding, shaping and compressing fabrics by hand and then immersing them in a traditional indigo vat. Since you can never totally control the process the results are always unique and the designs only revealed when the fabric is unwrapped...this is the true joy of Shibori.

Artisan's striking motifs involve bold colours and multi-directional, all-over prints with colours linking into other existing designs, such as the Pigeon and Saffron.
