Liberty Fabrics Archivistâs Edit black/wisteria/teal floral printed 100% cotton Tana Lawnâ˘
Width: 135cm
Weight: 104gsm
Matches Gßtermann thread no: 537
Based on a fragment of design in the Liberty archive from 1972, the colours and the placement of the fruit and flowers in this artwork are reminiscent of the glorious Dutch flower paintings of the 17th century, particularly the work of Rachel Ruysch.
âWe wanted to create a design full to the brim with floral elements, in homage to Rachel Ruyschâs paintings. The expressive hand used in the original give it a contemporary feel â a modern interpretation of the Dutch Floral theme.â â Ffion Griffith, Senior Designer
The Archivistâs Edit is curated by our legendary archivist Anna Buruma, the protector and custodian of Libertyâs design history for over 20 years. Encompassing 20 beautiful prints, the capsule collection shines a light into the more unusual and lesser-known corners of Libertyâs archive. Fragile fragments and half-forgotten artworks are regenerated into new designs by the in-house artists, drawing inspiration from Burumaâs favourite periods within the brandâs 145-year timeline as well as from across her own life and history.
Printed in Italy on Liberty's Tana Lawn⢠cotton, a fabric built by obsession, perfected into a modern masterpiece of production through a bespoke process that has evolved over a century. Printed in the Liberty Printing Mill, located between Milan and Lake Como in northern Italy, Tana realises unmatchable fluidity with a silk-like touch, unique print quality and striking colour vibrancy. Machine washable and durable enough for daily wear, it can be used to create everything from simple separates to spectacular statement pieces.
Liberty fabrics are so lusciously soft to touch and are perfect for dresses, shirts, tops, skirts, sleepwear etc.
