THE SILK ROAD collection explores and highlights one of the largest and earliest known trade routes. The vast network linked China and the Far East with the Middle East and Europe and dates back to 130 BC. It was a connective source of various cultures, commerce and history. We are inspired by the ancient and present mergings of art, textile, language and food. Jacqueline Rabôt, the founder and designer, is the daughter of a British-born Sri Lankan father and a New Jersey-born Hungarian and Polish mother. She is continuously drawing inspiration through the unification of her family's culture, experiences and travels.
We collaborated with Los Angeles-based artist, Amelia Lockwood to create the custom EYES and the silk scarf print. The eye has a multitude of meanings, but to us it is an emblem of protection, faith and creative energy.
