TEIXIDORS ABANS CUSHION | LIGHT GREY
A linen cushion in natural tones with subtle lined motif created by sewn seams. Inspired by the art of basket making with the fabric weave and created entirely using European sourced flax.
Abans means "before" in Catalan — an homage to timeless designs that focus on quality and durability rather than what happens to be trendy. The collection celebrates the tradition of basket weaving, one of the oldest handicrafts, just like the manual weaving developed at Teixidors on timber looms inspired by 18th century designs.
To work with flax on the manual looms of Teixidors, the dance of the weaver's hands and feet must be even softer and more deliberate — flax is a demanding fibre to weave by hand, with little give. In reality it requires an extraordinary skill.
