Charmian 1 - Tana Lawn Cotton - Liberty Fabrics €36,50pm

 Charmian draws us into an infinite meadow of stylised poppies, with a seamless floral repeat. Originally hand-painted in the Liberty studio in 1966, this subtle vintage pattern is drawn with fine outlines and accents of bold, flat colour. This print is part of the Red story of the Spring/Summer 2024 collection with designs drawing from the colour’s millennia-spanning history as feature of prehistoric paintings, and one of humanity’s first symbols of love, life and vitality.

“Red protects itself. No colour is as territorial. It stakes a claim, is on the alert against the spectrum.” – Derek Jarman

Liberty Tana Lawn is unique: a fabric made from specially selected ultra-fine long-staple cotton, woven from 70 and 100 ply yarns, with exclusive and superior qualities that have elevated Tana to its iconic status. Once woven, Tana is subjected to a lengthy series of preparations, followed by a process of mercerization that swells the fibers of the cotton, enhancing handle and luster, and stabilizing the fabric finish. Mercerization also increases dye absorption in the rotary screen printing or the latest digital print technology, allowing this fine fabric to carry color and print magnificently.
