This season we have relied heavily on the embroidery, crafts and
colours of people of the Thar desert in western India.
The town of Barmer and the surrounding villages produce a great
many styles of embroidery, including our chakli embroidered quilts
and applique bedcovers. All chakli bedcovers are one-off pieces.

1.
Dabu or mud resist printing, one of the oldest printing techniques
in Rajasthan, uses predominantly natural dyes and vegetable pastes
for colours. To create the upholstery fabrics for the chairs on these
pages, plain cotton dhurries were the blank canvases for the dabu
printing process. The tribal designs were created by applying the
special mud resist clay to the dhurry before being dyed. As this is
all manually done, each dhurry has its own unique design and colour
strength. Hence, no two chairs will be the same either in colour or
design.

This large cabinet comes in two parts and draws heavily on the
influence of traditional Japanese tansu chests. The clean lines enable
it to blend in with many styles and the deep drawers provide plenty
of storage.

CAB516 Tansu Cabinet with Sliding Doors - Natural 160 x 50 x 250 cm
We loved the round button-back sofa in linen so much that we have used the same model for suzani upholstery. The front is upholstered in a
vintage Uzbek suzani with co-ordinating velvet buttons and the back is upholstered in natural linen. Each piece is unique and is upholstered
in a one-off suzani. Please contact your sales representative for images of available stock and for images of other one-off items.
SOF111 Suzani Buttonback Round Sofa - Assorted 185 x 75 x 80 cm
Each vintage recycled fabric has passed through the hands of various crafts people as well as having had a life: each piece will almost
certainly have small marks, stains, holes or other imperfections. These should not be considered faults: rather, they are characteristic
of your vintage upholstered item.
