Mister Finch's Adventures

Fairy tales made from textile - this is the world of whimsical curiosities that are measured, cut and sewn from vintage fabrics, old stained aprons, dusty curtains and trims.  Realistically and  ingenuously conceptualized, Mister Finch's objects inspired by nature are mysterious and a bit creepy.  His creatures tell a story, they evoke wonderment and inspire the collector. Mister Finch resides in Yorkshire and with no formal training his works of art sell out on Etsy very quickly.  Welcome to Mister Finch's adventures...

Moroccan Wedding Blankets

From the Middle Atlas Mountains in Morocco, these one of a kind vintage blankets with paillete's are hand spun from lambs wool by Berber women.  The intricate weaving process, great care and prayer that is involved in making these works of art is believed to bring good fortune to the marriage.  These textiles can be used as throws, rugs and wall art.  Check them out here at Kerut Home
