What is hand block printing?
A floral design is carved into a teak block, dipped in dye, and pressed into the cotton by hand, one impression at a time. The repeat is held by the printer's eye and muscle memory, so no two pieces are exactly alike.
Will my bag look exactly like the photos?
Very close, but not identical. The color depth and petal definition vary slightly between pieces because each impression is pressed by hand. On a print this subtle, that adds character.
What fits inside?
At 11" long and 4.5" tall it holds a full day, phone, wallet, keys, sunglasses, and a small notebook, with a slip pocket for cards and lip balm.
Is it vegan?
Yes. Hand block-printed cotton with vegan-leather trim and cotton and jacquard lining. No animal products.
The story
The print here is made by hand. A floral carved into a teak block must be pressed into cotton with complete control, too little pressure and the petals bleed, too much and the fine lines collapse. The printer works the full length of the cloth, repeat by repeat, placing each flower from memory. The result reads as effortless and is anything but.
Where the Greco commands with geometry, the Flora earns it with softness. The cream ground sits easily against skin, against linen, against an evening dress. It does not try to match. It belongs.
Wear the bloom. Carry the season.

Gullye makes sculptural pieces by hand, in small editions, with master artisans in Jaipur. Once an edition sells out, it is retired.
The specification
The Flora is hand block-printed cotton on a cream ground, and light colors need a little more care. To clean, press the exterior with a soft damp cloth. Do not hand wash, machine wash, tumble dry, or dry clean. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight, which can yellow cream grounds, and keep makeup and perfume off the fabric. Store in the Gullye dust bag.
In confidence
In ancient Rome, Flora had her own festival and her own season. The idea behind it has mostly been forgotten: that flowers are not decoration but a force, returning every year without being asked, outlasting stone.
