Treasure Tree Square Cushion - Bonfield Block-Printers

£150

Quantity:

A large, square, block-printed cushion in 'Elizabethan ochre' on high-quality Russian linen. Backed in natural jute hemp with raw edging.

All the Bonfield Block-Printers’ cushions are block-printed by the artists, Cameron Short & Janet Tristram, in their workshop. Central to the whole operation is their trusty 1904 proofing press. The process is intensive but the result is something rather special.

How the cushions are made:
The chosen fabric is washed before printing (to allow for shrinkage and to remove any sizing) and then ironed. Once this is done, it is laid on the bed of the press to await the inked block. Linseed-based relief ink is mixed by hand to the desired colour before being applied to the block (using an artist's hand roller). The inked block is then carefully placed face-down onto the fabric, before the press's heavy cylinder roller is passed over it. The block is gently removed to reveal the design on the fabric.

The printed textile is taken away to cure (dry); it's then whisked up to their sewing room to be cut to size and transformed into the cushions you see here.

Materials: The cushion pad (inside) is 100% cotton and filled with duck feathers.

Dimensions: Width: 49cm x Length: 49cm
