Pierre Frey | Axelle

Axelle pairs a structured linen weave with a textured jute yarn, and the result reads like the ripples the tide leaves in sand: fine, horizontal and never quite regular. Woven in France in an EPV-certified workshop and laminated onto a non-woven backing, it gives a natural-fibre wall real depth. The horizontal emphasis helps a narrow hallway or a long dining room feel wider. It is 135 cm wide and free match, hangs by pasting the wall and is dry strippable. As a natural fibre it varies slightly from drop to drop, and its lightfastness is moderate.
