Salish Blankets
Robes of Protection and Transformation,
Symbols of Wealth

$30






Salish Blankets explores the weaving traditions of Coast Salish peoples, tracing the history, design, and cultural significance of these textiles. In a land rich with food and natural abundance, communities could turn their attention beyond survival, cultivating the time and artistry to create works of enduring beauty. These blankets, central to ceremony, status, and community, showcase the artistry and innovation of Salish weavers past and present.



Tapestry Bag 




$ 45





This tapestry bag features a muted, repeating floral pattern that reflects the region’s natural beauty. Floral motifs like these have a particularly resonant history in the Pacific Northwest, where lush forests, wildflower meadows, and temperate landscapes deeply influenced local aesthetics. Early settlers and regional artisans often incorporated native flora into decorative arts, blending European floral traditions with the Pacific Northwest’s distinctive botanical palette.


Felt Bag with Rope


$ 65






I’m not sure of its origin or maker, but this piece feels like a physical manifestation of a Kenneth Callahan painting. 


Tapestry Pillow

$65


















This found pillow features a dense, repeating botanical motif likely woven as a Jacquard textile, a technique pioneered by Joseph Marie Jacquard in the early 19th century that allowed complex patterns previously requiring painstaking hand-weaving to be produced more efficiently. The design incorporates acanthus leaves, stylized flowers, and intertwining vines, reminiscent of the Victorian and Arts and Crafts movements. In the Pacific Northwest, Craftsman-style homes were popular in the early 20th century, influenced by the earlier Arts and Crafts movements in 19th-century Europe, which emphasized harmony with nature, muted earthy colors, and handcrafted details. Unlike other regions that transitioned to more decadent fin de siècle styles, which superseded the Arts and Crafts movement, the Northwest’s lush forests, waterways, and mountains seemed to favor a simpler, more naturalistic aesthetic. This approach continues to shape PNW design and architecture today.



Hudson Bay Blanket

$350













The classic Hudson’s Bay blanket, often recognized by its bold multi-colored stripes, has a long history tied to the fur trade in North America. First introduced in the late 18th century by the Hudson’s Bay Company, these wool blankets were traded to Indigenous peoples in exchange for pelts and quickly became valued for their warmth, durability, and practicality in harsh climates. Over time, the blanket grew beyond its role as a trade item to become a cultural symbol, associated with both the history of commerce in Canada and the daily lives of those who relied on it. Today, Hudson’s Bay blankets remain iconic, blending their utilitarian origins with a lasting place in North American design and heritage.
