Cabana Linen Napkin Set - White

  • Everyone's favorite pattern to mix and match with is making its way to your dinner party, family gatherings and more. We love how this elevated neutral paired with ATELIER SAUCIER signature merrow-edge in warm ivory quietly dresses up any space.

    Each napkin is made start to finish in Los Angeles, California: the fabric is first printed by hand by our master printers there; it's then washed for maximum softness at a family-run wash house down the road; finally, the team at ATELIER SAUCIER expertly cuts, sews and trims each one before it makes its way to your table.

    About Cabana, the pattern: Tropical light through matchstick blinds. Bamboo in breeze-sway. Color, shadows, and the sunlight in between.

    Reimagined for the present from a Japanese textile purchased in the 1930s by our second-generation owners, Remy Sr. & Lucile Chatain. The original was a metallic gold foil print, executed on the most delicate of rice papers. Tucked away in a small folder of travel ephemera for almost one hundred years – we felt it was time for this textural treat to see the light of day.

     

about CABANA: (Or, when a souvenir from a 1930's trip to Japan winds its way to a suburban Los Angeles garage in 2017.)

Perfectly imperfect, the striations in Cabana run both horizontally and vertically in a subtle, hand-drawn rhythm. The combination of softness and geometry means that Cabana is an amazing counterpart to larger, bolder patterns (we love it with Martinique® for the way it picks up the veins in the banana leaves).

To say we were overjoyed when we discovered this beautiful piece of history in a small stack of mementos from second generation CW Stockwell owners Lucile and Remy L. Chatain,Sr.'s 1930's vacation to Kobe, Japan - that would be the understatement, of...well, the century.
