Our new collection Atelier Véronique, is a unique collaboration with French artist Veronique de Soultrait. Veronique is known for her intricate embroidered art, which features small geometric and organic patterns crafted from rope and rustic elements. Her designs, typically seen on room dividers and curtains, have been reimagined in this collection. We have seamlessly integrated her signature embroidered patterns with Christopher Farr Cloth's curated colour palette, resulting in exquisite curtain-weight fabrics. Each piece is meticulously hand-guided in India on cotton base cloth and jute, with careful attention to detail, preserving the textured rope elements that define Veronique's works.
Each fabric is a testament to the skill and creativity of de Soultrait, brought to life in settings that reflect Virginia White’s impeccable taste and eye for detail. Whether used in a grand living room or a cosy bedroom, these fabrics have the power to transform any space, adding a touch of elegance and a story of artisanal excellence. For those with a discerning eye for design, this collection offers something truly special—a blend of tradition and modernity, art and function, that we hopewill inspire for years to come. This collaboration will be remembered not only for its beauty but also for the way it brings together the worlds of fine art and interior design. It’s a celebration of what happens when artistic minds come together to create something truly remarkable.
In collaboration with Veronique de Soultrait, 'Foliage' is a hand-guided curtain-weight fabric on a cotton base cloth.

Crafted with a sense of playful freedom, overlapping and intersecting shapes converge in an astral-inspired pattern. This geometric design blends printed and embroidered elements, resulting in a striking, intricate fabric that is both visually dynamic and unique.

Inspired by the childhood game of ‘Mikado,’ this fabric captures the simplicity of a basic motif in repeat. Drawing from Veronique's memories of learning to stitch with her grandmother, she transforms simple elements into luxurious patterns, reminiscent of wrapping threads around nails to create intricate designs. The technical process of the rice stitch adds depth to this enchanting fabric.
