INTRODUCING GRASSWEAVE MOTIFS: Handwoven Contemporary Designs of Historical Patterns

Since the Fall of 2021, with the launch of the Max Humphrey Collection by Hartmann&Forbes, we’ve been experimenting with unique patterns on our jacquard handloom. Jacquard is a classic weaving technique in which pattern and color are woven directly into the textile with a visible reverse pattern. We loved the graphic and creative designs we could create using this technique, and thus the Woven-to-Size Grassweave Motifs Collection was born. 

A visual representation of the concept of motifs, this collection deploys repeating decorative patterns to artfully express emotions and ideas. These intricate designs are handwoven using natural fibers on a jacquard loom for rich color and texture and a calming, rhythmic effect. For Spring/Summer 2023, we’re introducing two series to the Motifs Collection, Canework and Pinisi, each offered in four colorways. Look for more designs in the seasons to come!
