A stripe, and then a second thought about the stripe. An additional weft runs through the weave tracing diamond shapes across it, so the vertical is interrupted at intervals without ever being abandoned. Luke Edward Hall's position is that a stripe belongs in almost every room, which is true, and that the usual versions are not the only option, which is the argument this one makes.
The repeat is small, 6 cm by 8.5 cm, so the diamonds recur often enough to become part of the rhythm and not a punctuation of it. Woven as a lampas in cotton, acetate and recycled polyamide at 310 cm, wide enough to railroad, and substantial at 730 g. That combination suits full-length curtains and light upholstery rather than anything taking hard daily use. Six colourways, made in Italy.
