Description
Ol bom dia,
Im a self-taught block printer with a passion for pure natural linen and ethnic art. I print colourful, repetitive patterns inspired by ocean life.
Block printing is a traditional type of printing dating to ancient times across Asia. I do everything by hand and the entire process has a very small carbon footprint. Its a perfect example of slow fashion.
The linen I use for this tablecloth is 100% pure and weighs 165 gms. To me theres nothing better than the natural look and feel of real linen. It ages well and becomes more and more beautiful over time.
I source it here in Portugal from a producer in Guimares. With a passion for circularity, they are true pioneers when it comes to producing sustainable linen.
I print with a water-soluble ink that carries the AP seal from the Art and Creative Materials Institute.
You can wash these tablecloths either by hand or in the machine on the linen setting with a gentle soap.
The name Amar Amar comes from Eu vou mar (Im going to the tide) you often hear local fisherman use this phrase when they go out to sea.
