'Galliot' Limited Edition Velvet Wall Hanging
'Galliot' Limited Edition Velvet Wall Hanging
In part inspired by the mood and colours reflected in J M W Turners paintings, Galliot is Blackpops fictional pirate ship, making voyages in uncharted waters, shrouded in mystery and history.
For this limited ed. piece, Blackpop commissioned a textile artist to bejewel the surface of Galliot. The materials she used in this 'tapestry' include a lovely collection of strand line finds that sit in a hand spun, hand dyed and hand knotted flax net. The buttons and beads (some her grandmothers) are antique and the 'Molluscs' are hand spun 'singles' (not plied) using mulberry silk which has been hand dyed, stiffened and formed using gold thread and cotton neps.
The other additions are made with recycled vintage sari silk fabric and hand spun hand dyed wool from British breeds of sheep stiffened and formed.
The tapestry is then finished with a unique ruche trim - colours may vary from that of the image.
Our lead time is 6 - 8 weeks
Please note each embellished tapestry is a one off however multiple unembellished wall hangings are also available.
