Crafted from cozy printed cotton & spandex lined with super soft poly-fleece, our Cottage Jackets combine the warmth and comfort of a cardigan with the style, versatility, and look of our stardusters. Folklore is our nod to the romance of the Arts and Crafts movement, and the beauty of “non-finito” — art that is a work-in-progress. The printed Bird-of-Peace comes from original embroidery hand stitched by Vancouver Island fiber artist Kim Donohoe. Inspired by a 19th century embroidery panel found in the British Museum, it is a marvel of craftsmanship. The background panels, sleeves & trim come from 3 separate works created in 1885 by British textile designer and artist William Morris. All are unfinished, and Morris’s original pencil and ink sketch marks can be seen where the designs remain incomplete. We left these in intentionally & the result feels like a fairytale you can wear.
