Formosa Saffron

The limbo is interpreted by a solid colour background simulating the effect of marmorino stucco walls.

Color variations

This collection explores the full spectrum of Misha’s savoir-faire: from hand-painting, used for solid backgrounds (by applying as many as 4 layers of colour onto a white canvas) as well as for f lower and fruit motifs, to geometric motifs of stripes and patterns. Silk embroidery is employed in its multiple techniques (solid embroidery, half embroidery or outline stitching), even comprising the manual application of metallic leaves in their craquelé version.
