NEW MOGHUL EMBROIDERIES
22nd June 2022
Elegant and pretty, a new collection of 4 coordinating embroidered linen fabrics, in 5 colourways, expertly crafted by Chelsea Textiles. Neisha’s modern interpretation of Moghul ornamentation, reminiscent of the finest features of a Rajasthani palace, was sparked by a motif on an antique white embroidered sheer she found in India. However, its onion dome and trellis structure could suggest an Ottoman provenance, and the fine embroidery gives it traces of Jacobean blackwork embroidery. A rich mix of of fine lines, with lots of cross hatching, chain stitches and french knots. MOGHUL FLOWER, MOGHUL PATCH and MOGHUL BORDER are it’s offspring. Colours range from mustard yellow to sage green and dusty pink. Available now from Chelsea Textiles.
