We can bring tradition into the present and innovate without losing it, and keep Valencian silk alive.
Quality, originality, exclusivity and manual dexterity in a piece with a traditional format.
It appeals to our traditional dresses and fabrics but with a fresh, different decoration, which also includes motifs that represent us, such as oranges and flowers, pieces of the iconic imagery of our spurs and silk tradition.
The style "Chinnoiserie is a classic of English decoration in the richest drawing rooms and refers to Asian motifs from its colonial period, which are linked to the Silk Road and to us through it.
Silk made in Valencia by Vives i Marí custom made to order for this project. Sewn by the master MariCarmen Francés.
The work is aimed at costume designers of traditional and film costumes. They are looking for quality pieces and unique, luxury finishes, to recreate historical or new prints with a classic air.
Also high-end interior designers who want silk prints for their silk textiles, furniture or walls.
Firms such as Degournay are my reference, and have a waiting list for their hand-painted products on silk as coatings.
TV series such as "Bridgerton's"are an example of a trendy application such as the one I am presenting.
All parts are fitted and adjusted on the model.
With a spectacular result!
