The simplicity of this polka dot pattern is a great compliment to its bold and colorful silk velvet ground. This fabric as a pillow or throw will add a glamorous 1920s feel to your home. This design began in Kevin’s sketchbook, was printed on silk velvet, then hand-painted in small batches by artisans in Philadelphia. Dye is applied by hand in layers on the velvet fiber surface. Variations in color are part of the nature of our unique dying process.
