Kelly Wearstler - District

from £165.00

District in tawny by Kelly Wearstler. Oversized blocks of colour laid down as though hand painted, in apricot and terracotta, buttermilk yellow and pale aqua on a cream ground, with a fine graphite line drawn round some of the shapes. It nods towards cubism without being literal about it.

It is printed onto a substantial cotton with a visible weave and the colour sits into the fabric rather than on top of it, so the blocks look slightly chalky, as though they had been mixed by hand.

Backed in another Wearstler fabric, her black and ivory wobbly stripe, and piped in buttermilk canvas. Two very different fabrics on one cushion, which is the point of it: the front is all colour, the back is all line.

Available as a 30 x 40cm and a 30 x 50cm rectangle. Corners are tapered, fabric edges are overlocked and there is an invisible zip along the bottom edge. Handmade in my Devon workroom, available with or without a duck feather pad.

Only a small number of covers were cut from this length of fabric, so once they have gone they will not be repeated.

Wearstler is one of the few designers whose fabrics are worth the outlay on a small cushion, because the scale of the print means you see the whole idea even at 30 x 40. The pair of them on a plain sofa will carry a room on their own, and the apricot sits happily with terracotta and unglazed clay.

Care Instructions

The irregularities and shade variations are characteristic of the fabric. Exact colour matching to previous orders cannot be guaranteed. Dry cleaning recommended.
