This commission posed some difficulties for us in locating a metallic silver brocade which had sufficient suppleness. After exploring many avenues, the Studio finally obtained a brocade made of silk with metallic threads.
The ornament was formed from a cotton jacquard in colours of silver and ivory. This was outlined with a grey and silver braid to form the Roman TAU at the front and a column at the back.
The finished product was distinctive, elegant and lightweight.
