Apricity articulates the concept of the warmth of the sun on a cold winter day. It is a beautiful and poetic term for that feeling when the sun's rays touch your skin, bringing a sense of coziness and contentment. It is a reminder that even in the coldest of times, there is always the potential for warmth...

Similarly, this high-contrast silk dupioni fabric captures the essence of apricity. Created from a shimmery off-white and a medium earthy brown, it brings to mind the warmth of the sun's rays as they illuminate the earth. The fabric's interplay of light and dark, of warm and cool tones, is reminiscent of the changing seasons and the way that even in the depths of winter, there is always the promise of spring.
