The Kanagawa Sonata

An icon of our inaugural collection.
The Kanagawa Sonata is a masterpiece of fluid motion and quiet power. Inspired by Hokusai’s legendary woodblock print, The Great Wave off Kanagawa, this throw reimagines a timeless icon of Japanese art through the lens of modern textile design. It captures the rolling intensity of the cresting wave, grounding the dramatic indigo blues against a serene cream-colored field. Meticulously crafted from high-density Recycled Cotton, it offers a substantial, tactile luxury that adds gravity to any space. It is a piece that invites you to slow down, offering a visual composition that is as soothing as it is profound.

Versatility meets artistry.
Woven with a reversible narrative, offering Two distinct visual stories in a single, weighted composition.
This piece is a study in creative harmony, paying homage to Hokusai’s unrivalled mastery of line and form. More than just a simple throw, it serves as a decorative centrepiece that brings a calm, sophisticated energy to your home. Whether draped over a statement chair or layered as a wall tapestry, its rhythm and depth make it the perfect note to complete your composition. Finished with finely fringed edges, it is designed to be lived in, loved, and admired from every angle.
