Cash’s Weaving – Dog

Lovely silk picture of a Dog executed by Cash’s. This company had long been a competitor and successor to the Stevens and Grant factories, and were well known in earlier days for their nametapes. The production process is exactly that of the Stevengraphs, on a modern Jacquard loom. The materials have changed over the years with the introduction of artificial silk substitutes such as rayon. This picture was one of a series of productions in the 1960s. They compare well with  Steven’s work, without ever really rivalling it, but the survival of the technique is a pleasure to see. This has been framed using modern framing materials to a high standard of conservation, and would look pleasing in any furnished environment. Framed size: 7″ x 9.5″.
