    Egyptian Faience Fabric

Horus

Horus is one of the most significant deities of ancient Egypt, depicted as both a falcon or a man with the head of a falcon. Here, we interpret the color tones of the faience and the movement of the falcon's wings into this two-tone jacquard.

Papyrus & Reed

Inspired by the textures of ancient Egypt, Reed and Papyrus are three coordinating fabrics. Papyrus features broad stripes of cut-edge wefts. Reed features a narrow stripe of fringe-cut wefts.

Qasaba

Inspired by the vast collection of papyrus, reed, and linen artifacts in the Egyptian Wing of The Met. Named for a famous cobblestone street in Cairo, Qasaba elicits the texture and tone of the stones of Egypt, even the hatch marks on the papyrus fragment shown here.
