L'Orangerie is a bouquet of ikat-drawn flowers, a powerful and enduringly charming design printed on linen. The ikat treatment gives the blooms their particular character: edges that feather and blur as if the flowers were seen through heat or memory, softening a motif that would otherwise be emphatic. The linen ground keeps it natural underhand. It is a generous, good-humoured fabric that carries a room without tiring it.
