Most of what carries the Raffles name is screen-printed — pattern laid onto finished cloth. This one isn't. It's jacquard woven in Spain, which means the pattern isn't applied to the fabric, it's built into the structure of it — every rose is a decision made at the loom, thread by thread, before the cloth exists as cloth at all. That's also why it's reversible: a woven pattern has an honest backside, not a blank one, because there was never a "right side" being printed onto a "wrong side" to begin with. Two finished fabrics for the effort of one.

Rose on white, 54" wide, 4" repeat, 100% cotton — $92, marked down from $188, 13 yards in stock. Real pedigree behind it too: styled into pillows by Sara Gilbane, House Beautiful, February 2014. Sold reversible, priced like it isn't.
