Newcastle University Silks

Newcastle University licensed the above illustration for a set of luxury corporate gifts. The iconic Arches features on a bespoke pashmina crafted by an artisan manufacturer in North East India, harnessing traditional weaving skills with more contemporary digital printing.
The same illustration was used for two handmade 100% silk jacquard woven tie designs, one pattern featuring the University lion and the other a St Cuthbert Cross both taken from it's coat of arms. The picture was hidden on the reverse, a traditional device known as tipping.
