Tessuti Printed
Textiles specialise in the hand silk screening of fashion
accessories and interior pieces on natural fabrics - silk,
cotton, lanbswool and cashmere.
Fiona McIntosh studied at the Scottish College
of Textiles in the picturesque Scottish Borders. In 1985 she
set up her printed textile studio Tessuti in Scotland's capital
Edinburgh. From here she hand dyes and silk screen prints
a range of unique fashion accessories primarily using natural
fabrics - knitted wool, lambswool and cashmere. The technique
she uses produces vibrant colours and retains the soft handle
of the fabrics. Fiona's current inspiration is taken from
motifs reminiscent of the 1950's and 1960's.
Tessuti’s interiors range include blinds
made to order; textiles combined with metalwork to produce
limited edition stools, screens and hangings; and metalwork
tables with handmade ceramic tile tops featuring Tessuti’s
unique designs.
