Grasscloth collection · Fibre · GC-RAF
Long teal strands drift horizontally across a sand ground, swelling and thinning so the lines never run quite straight. A few darker bands stand out against many pale ones, and tiny vertical ticks hint at split raffia. Seen from a distance the effect is of slow horizontal movement, a good fit for a long corridor or lift lobby where the eye travels along the wall.
Natural fibre, drawn rather than photographed. Abaca, jute, raffia and hemp are woven — warp over weft, with the slubs and butt joins the material cannot help having. Reed, arrowroot, bamboo and seagrass run one way only, as stalks laid side by side. Leaf is the wide flat strips of hyacinth and paper weave. Mineral is cork and mica. Real grasscloth has no repeat at all, so these are drawn long and irregular: at the recommended repeat the eye finds the fibre, not the join.
