No exotic location was too far away to serve as inspiration for modernist design. This beautiful matelassé double cloth with its elegant puckers has a lively pattern perhaps inspired by Pacific Islands tapa cloth, which was being collected for the first time in the early 20th century and shown in exhibitions of "oriental" art.
