The collaboration between Christopher Farr and Veronique de Soultrait for the fabric ‘Mikado’ brings a unique artistic vision to life. This curtain-weight fabric is crafted on a cotton base and draws inspiration from the childhood game “Mikado,” where players delicately pick up sticks, reflecting a simple yet captivating motif.
Rooted in Veronique’s childhood memories of stitching with her grandmother, the fabric represents the beauty of transforming basic forms into complex patterns. It evokes a sense of nostalgia and craftsmanship.
The use of a hand-guided process mimics the technique of wrapping threads around nails, forming intricate, luxurious designs.
The technical use of the rice stitch adds texture and dimension, making the fabric visually rich and tactile.
This fabric perfectly marries simplicity with sophistication, offering an elegant, handcrafted touch to any interior space, especially for curtains where texture and craftsmanship play a significant role in the overall aesthetic.
