Coral Lotus

The piece

Coral pink, with soft natural variation across the field, sets off dark olive and brown palmettes, lotus blooms and curled leaves. They are spaced openly and mirrored around the centre, so the pink stays dominant. A narrow cream guard of tiny flowers separates the field from a wide steel blue border, which carries darker palmettes of its own. Pink against blue keeps the classical layout fresh rather than formal. It suits a bedroom, a sitting room facing a garden, or a dining room with white panelling. Hand-knotted in Jaipur in hand-spun New Zealand wool with mulberry silk accents on a cotton warp, made to order in any size and colourway.
