'sunset in the mountains' mosaic kaftan
From the Mosaics collection, this long jacket is a year-round piece and a true example of art couture. Something about the texture and the combination of colors made the artist think of the distant mountains and a sunset - hence the name. This is an example of a most painstaking process of painting and piecing the colors together to achieve this balanced almost ombre-like effect in a mosaic-like overall structure. One of the artist's favorites from the current collection, and a slightly different look from the rest of the pieces in the collection. It has a bit of weight to it due to two layers of fabric - the underlying layer being soft silk twill, with the top - brushed cotton, hand-painted and distressed with raw edging in the recognizable style of the artist. Many tops are available to pair with this art statement. SOLD - V.SH. Product code: L7471

Hand wash.
All garments arrive to you freshly cleaned, unlike regular store-bought items, and are ready to wear.
Dry-cleaning is ok on most items but only if gentle methods are used and the cleaners are familiar with cleaning hand-painted delicate fabrics.
To freshen up any item that doesn’t need deep cleaning simply mist it with a water spray and put in the dryer on medium heat for about 15 min.
All garments can be hand washed. Wash each item separately, cold water only, minimal amount of detergent, and as briefly as possible, no soaking. The wash can be followed by a spin in the washer and dried on medium heat until dry. Knits should be hung-dried and when dry, finished in the dryer for a few minutes to soften.
Hand-pressing may be necessary after the wash and dry to straighten out the seams and edges which tend to pucker or curl on natural fabrics.
Some hand-dyed items may leak a bit of color during the washing, that is normal and will not affect the item. Using liquid softener during the wash will minimize any color leaking.
For more tips and details please refer to the cleaning instructions card included with your package.
