We're so proud to be working with Edwina and her cooperative of batik dyers in Accra, Ghana, to make these prints! Learn more about these fabrics here!
In order to create a batik fabric, recycled wax is melted and applied to the fabric using a stamped pattern. Edwina carves each stamped design herself in foam, which is easier to repurpose and work with than wood. Together with several women in Accra, Ghana, Edwina and her team always create designs that play on both pattern and layered color in a truly original way. Since we began working together in 2018, we've produced over 40 unique textiles together, keeping them in continuous production since we started. We're so honored to share this collaboration with Edwina and her team!

My hubby selected Quince for me. I admit that I was not drawn to it immediately. But I love the colors and find it a nice fit for layering this fall. - Quince with Bryn Walker heavy linen pants and basic Costco cotton shirt. (Backdrop: Atlantic Art Glass in Ellsworth, Maine)

I ordered this because I love brown and it doesn’t disappoint. I love it! I didn’t realize until it arrived that it has pink as well. Now I need to go to Fillmore to see if they have soft pink jewelry that will work. I couldn’t tell from the website.
I usually wear the shirts as jackets.
