Designer: Eleish Van Breems
THE INSPIRATION Our inspiration for “Sacred Geometry" is an antique quilt from Smaland, Sweden. Smaland (a mid-southern province in Sweden where we manufacturer our hand crafted, Eleish Van Breems Home Swedish furniture collection), historically is a leader in the art of handicraft, whether it is furniture, textiles or wall coverings. We celebrate the art of handicraft by paying homage to the artisans both in Sweden, as well as on Nantucket, whose stories, talents and community thrive in their creations, and keep the maker crafts so valued.
Our stitching inspiration is the Sashiko embroidery technique. There is such an organic sympatico and respected dialogue between Scandinavian “less is more” and Japanese Wabi Sabi, so it seems in harmony to bring in a little bit of “Japadi” into the mix, creating a fusion of sacred geometry. Harmony, Function and Form.
THE DESIGNER Eleish van Breems, was started as a fine antiques gallery in Woodbury, CT in 1997. Set in a historic 1760 house and garden, the store was a compelling example of a Scandinavian lifestyle on display.
Rhonda and Edie's fresh take on Gustavian formal and country Swedish folk antiques mixed with the latest accessories from Scandinavia quickly became a go-to resource, with an international following. Interior design and a line of historically based Swedish furniture soon followed for the two childhood friends.
