Take My Hand Cropped Kimono
A splendid and wholly original ode to friendship, this lighthearted design has quickly become one of our very favourites! We combined several pieces of art in the tradition of Victorian collage — including a remarkably detailed engraving of clasped hands and sunrays from 1626, a satchel adorned with a painted heart from a seventeenth-century colour chart, and flowers from an 1800’s lithograph.
The banners on the front reads, in both English and French, “La vie n’est rien sans l’amitié — Life is nothing without friendship”. The trim combines more hand-coloured 1800’s florals collaged together.
The resulting print is joyful and fresh — and unlike anything we’ve made before. Machine wash gentle or handwash and hang to dry.
