a hand embroidered fabric collection has been created by<br />

kit kemp, design director of firmdale hotels, in collaboration<br />

with chelsea textiles’ head designer, jenny simpson.<br />

influenced by a sense of the whimsical and the lyrical,<br />

as well as a love of animals, the collection features a series of<br />

characters and patterns that have a primitive, folkloric feel.<br />

the narratives unfold playfully on the fabric, from a star<br />

gazing dog and a sailor’s farewell to mythical creatures<br />

and a modern take on a suzani.<br />

the art of hand-embroidery is the essence of chelsea textiles<br />

and kit kemp brings the medium to light using wonderful<br />

colour palettes and charming, idiosyncratic patterns. chelsea<br />

textiles specialises in bespoke, hand-embroidered textiles and<br />

is one of very few companies safeguarding the skill and timehonoured<br />

tradition of producing exquisitely detailed handmade<br />

fabrics, using authentic, high quality materials.


i’ve always cherished<br />

embroidery, as an art<br />

form as well as a constant<br />

source of inspiration for<br />

the fabrics i use to<br />

decorate rooms.<br />

this particular collection<br />

reflects my love of the<br />

whimsical and lyrical,<br />

and also of my love for<br />

animals, both real<br />

and imaginary.<br />

there is something<br />

timeless and precious<br />

about embroidery,<br />

it demands to be<br />

treasured.<br />

“<br />


there should always<br />

be an element of<br />

surprise and a heavy<br />

dose of charm<br />

guaranteed to<br />

make you smile.<br />

ff007 (u.s. ref.2607 ⁄ 01) friendly flowers


ff009 (u.s. ref.2609 ⁄ 01) springtime

“<br />

this is how i feel most<br />

comfortable when dealing<br />

with embroidery – exquisitely<br />

handcrafted but interwoven<br />

with my firm belief that<br />

interiors should never<br />

be too serious.<br />
