richelieu
|
(1)
|
|
|
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!

maraschino
|
|
|
This brilliant solid fuchsia is named after the preserved sweetened cherry made from Royal Ann, Gold, or Rainier varietals! Often added to yummy cocktails and sweet desserts as a garnish, they are best known as an integral part of the American ice cream sundae, which consequently gave rise to the term "with a cherry on top"!
This silk is adorned with tiny textured microdots that measure 0.5mm, which are pleasing to the eye without being distracting.

This liquid gold-and-deep burgundy concoction is named after THE original cocktail! Made with whiskey, sugar, Angostura bitters, and an orange peel or cherry for garnish, this ambrosial nectar was designed for whiskey lovers! It's got a rich, smooth, silky taste, and when you take that first sip, you immediately notice the orange, caramel, and other spicy notes, as well as a few aromatic pops thanks to the bitters!

A breathtaking crimson, dark gold, and onyx black taffeta that will engulf bystanders like an inescapable lava flow!
Mount Vesuvius is the only active volcano in mainland Europe, and has produced some of the continent's largest volcanic eruptions! Located on Italy's west coast, it overlooks the Bay and City of Naples and sits in the crater of the ancient Somma volcano. While it has erupted more than fifteen different times, Vesuvius is most famous for destroying the Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum in 79 AD!

boleyn

Slotting in between our Black Cherry and Cardinal taffetas, this rich hue is a melange of sensual burgundy and sweet brandy, which makes for a very royal pairing!
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. The circumstances of her marriage and subsequent beheading for treason and other charges made her a key figure in the political and religious upheaval that marked the start of the English Reformation…

corazon
|
|
|
The Spanish word "corazón" holds a wealth of meaning, from "heart" to "soul" to "passion." It is also a word that evokes deep emotions and romance, and is often used to express adoration and affection, with phrases like "Te quiero con todo mi corazón" (“I love you with all my heart”) invoking eternal declarations of unconditional love…
Similarly, this beguiling solid cherry-colored dotted silk taffeta epitomizes romance, while its delicate, tiny dots add a playful touch to the rich texture and natural sheen. This bold fabric will help you create an unforgettable project that is both beautiful and evocative, reminding others of the passion and love embodied by the timeless word "corazón."
This silk is adorned with tiny textured microdots that measure 0.5mm, which are pleasing to the eye without being distracting.
