History

A line of patterned cushions that is a form of artistic craftsmanship. Each piece is hand-painted: in the extension of the brush, the design is born from a gesture. The inspiration comes from Kalamkari, an ancestral pictorial technique originating from India and Iran. The name brings together two words, Kalam (the pen) and Kari (the work).

With natural pigments, the patterns are drawn on cotton soaked in buffalo milk and resin. Works made over a long period of time: 24 hours of drying are necessary between each layer. The result is unique covers with harmonious shades that tell a story.

Kalamkari en détails

Son origine remonte à plusieurs siècles : Le Kalamkari est l'art textile traditionnel de l'Andhra Pradesh, dans le sud de l'Inde. Cet art textile consiste en la peinture ou la teinture de motifs élaborés sur du coton ou de la soie à l'aide d'un stylo, d'un pinceau fin ou d'un tampon en bois (block print). Il est souvent utilisé pour confectionner des saris, nappes, couvre-lits, tentures murales, coussins et autres éléments décoratifs d'intérieur. Nos housses de coussin se parent de beaux dessins fleuris très fins, emplis de finesse, d'un trait délicat, avec une multitude de couleurs.
