Briar Rose is the name of the protagonist in Grimm’s version of Sleeping Beauty! The story is about a king and a queen who hold a great feast to celebrate the birth of their one and only child, a baby girl. The queen insists that thirteen fairies be invited to the event, but when one of the fairies is cut from the guest list, she crashes the party anyway and for the parents’ slight, she curses Briar Rose, declaring that she will die on her 15th birthday! It is only by the grace of one of the other fairies that the curse is altered, and Briar Rose instead falls into a deep slumber for one hundred years, only to be awakened by the kiss from - who else - a prince!

In homage to this somewhat dark fairytale, we present this sage-and-olive two-toned shantung. It is festooned with pink flowers outlined in navy blue, all of which are connected together by silver ivy! Each flower measures 2” x 2” and the fabric has a 15.5” repeat. 54” wide.
