PREORDERS NOW OPEN! ARRIVING MID JAN

Created using an antique lithograph of a Victorian woman rowing through a storm — this print is a beautiful reminder of hope, tenacity, and strength.

The image of a Brig ship is from an 1851 painting by Fitz Henry Lane, and the vintage lettering & seagulls are from a ship merchant advertising poster circa 1882. The rainbow & sun come from an antique postcard from the same era.

For the trim, we reconstructed a 200-year-old textile fragment of suns, moons, and stars (origin unknown). The phrase “Hold Fast” — meaning “hold on tight, you’ll get through this” is a seafaring expression that sailors traditionally tattooed on to their knuckles, as talismans of protection to keep their grip on the rigging of the ship! “Smooth seas and fair winds will find you” is a play on the traditional nautical good luck blessing, “fair winds and following seas”.

100% bamboo/wood viscose.
