AN ARCHETYPE WEAVE
IN THE MAKING
Defined by distinctive plaid stripes enriched with an intricate check pattern adding depth and definition against a beige backdrop, Havana is loomed with hand-placed fibers of black abaca and thick, textural ramie. The sensibility is at once relaxed and tailored.
A multihued mix of fibers marks the Melange design. Ramie, palm, and black abaca are skillfully twisted together to evoke the heathered look of eagle feathers. The weave—distinctive and dense—combines natural colors to create a slanted, impressionistic pattern.
Masterfully interwoven with a mix of thick and thin ramie fibers creating a variegated palette, Pima features a freeform composition of subtle, open stripes. Elegant, white striations are reminiscent of cotton fields, which enhances the tactile richness and rustic-meets-refined feel.
A thick warp of double-twisted palm yarns yields a textural landscape that conjures traditional Japanese mats. Hand-knotted fibers in two earthy colors combine to form a tonal grid pattern while allowing light to pass through like a dimensional screen.
Inspired by centuries-old traditional African hand braiding, this textural pattern is punctuated by intricately-braided dark ramie and enlightened by playful cream warp threads.
Influenced by the Scottish tradition of cloth-making, this weave of natural ramie is interwoven with grounded tones of cream and grey, producing an open-checked pattern.
Created in honor of the historical 18th century Tattersall blanket pattern, this modern perspective is composed of interwoven indigo warp threads and ramie, highlighting strong vertical lines with contrasting neutrals.
