No catalog page records it. The archive itself was surprised to see it come off the shelf. Which makes this lot something rarer than a discontinued fabric: a colorway that was never continued in the first place — printed once, for one client, and never again.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eAnd here’s the joke of it: turquoise is the color Melong Batik was arguably born for. The pattern is China Seas’ interlocking rings — that hypnotic batik geometry of circles linking hands across the cloth — and in Reverse, the color floods the ground so the motif reads in the pale tint, like light seen through water. Run that logic in lagoon turquoise and the whole fabric becomes exactly what the house name promises: the China Seas, by the yard. The most obvious color the pattern could ever wear turned out to be the one you could never buy — until now, and only eleven yards of now.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eEleven yards is a real commission: a sofa, a pair of generous curtains, six dining chairs that will outrank the table. At $92 from $218, someone is going to own the only run of this colorway we’ve ever seen — and when a guest asks where it’s from, the honest answer will be the best one in decorating: you can’t get it.
