Thalia is a printed cotton satin from the Otelie collection, a botanical drawn at generous scale — the repeat spans the full width of the cloth — so stems and blooms wander rather than march. The satin ground lends the drawing a faint lustre that lifts it without tipping into shine, and the pure cotton takes the print crisply. Rated for general domestic use, it is at its best on curtains, headboards and the occasional chair rather than the family sofa.
