In Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet," the titular characters’ relationship is one of deep passion and all-consuming love, and they express their feelings through poetry and song. Despite the bitter feud between their families, these two young lovers are so drawn to each other that they are willing to defy their parents and society, risking everything - even their lives - to be together. Their relationship may be a tragic one, but it is also a powerful and moving lesson that love transcends all boundaries.

Similarly, this deep scarlet-and-onyx black dotted silk taffeta embodies the same sense of passion and all-consuming love. The scarlet in particular evokes a sense of desire and intensity matched by few other red taffetas. Indeed, this is a fabric that radiates a deep sense of romance, just like the timeless relationship of Juliet Capulet and Romeo Montague.

This silk is adorned with tiny textured microdots that measure 0.5mm, which are pleasing to the eye without being distracting.

This reverential, almost priestly solid burgundy is named for the infamous French cardinal who helped to consolidate Louis XIII's royal power during the 1600s. A very clever man with great ambitions, Richelieu was a politician, negotiator, and orator who transformed France and was famous for his patronage of the arts. His policies were the prelude to Louis XIV becoming the most powerful monarch - and France the most powerful nation - in all of Europe during the late 17th century...

However, Richelieu was deeply unpopular, largely because of his controversial treatment of commoners and, as a result, he was often portrayed in literature as a nefarious trickster. Most famously, in Alexandre Dumas' "The Three Musketeers," L'Eminence Rouge (The Red Eminence) appeared as a cunning and insidious - yet highly charismatic - character...

Features microlines that measure 0.5mm - very tiny, and perfect for adding a nuanced texture unlike anything you ever imagined!

Few queens have fascinated people over so many centuries as Anne Boleyn. As the second wife of King Henry VIII, she was Queen of England from 1533 to 1536.

Pietersite is a stunning gemstone that is known for its unique and swirling reds and blues.

Ammil refers to the glittering layer of ice that dusts leaves, twigs, and grass after a freeze!

This moody, scarlet red-and-misty blue taffeta captures the beauty of the transition from winter to spring by diffusing each other into different tones! Indeed, the deep red and blue tones evoke the cold, crisp days of winter, but as the seasons shift and winter gives way to spring, “Ammil” mirrors this change. That’s because the rich, deep hues of the fabric can shift, giving way to brighter, more vibrant pink-and-aqua look, much like the emerging flowers and foliage of spring! Whether worn during the final days of winter or the early days of spring, this fabric is a celebration of the natural beauty and cyclical changes that mark the passing of time.
