TIGER LILY Custom coloured by SJW in the palette curated by textile designer and artist Mary Brown. Mary and Catherine Whitting of St James Whitting met when Catherine was one of Mary’s students, and they have remained in contact ever since. This rug instantly became a “must have” for Mary’s own dining room, celebrated and loved for its organic and camouflage pattern and its dynamic colour palette.

“This St James Whitting Design is precious to me because it was designed by Catherine and it provides me with a visual feast every day,” says Mary. “I will never tire of that sensation.” marybrowndesigns.com
