Following the celebrated launch of our first Italian Collection, inspired by the sun-drenched Aeolian Islands, we are thrilled to transport you to a different corner of this incredible country with the arrival of Volume II: Dolomiti Plains.

This collection is a sophisticated design journey through the stunning Veneto region of Northern Italy. The natural palette shifts beautifully, moving from the historic, sun-washed colours of Venice's ancient buildings and soft lagoons all the way up to the dramatic, jagged peaks of the Dolomites. Here, the magnificent mountain rock catches the sunset, bathing the peaks in a luminous, pale pink glow (known locally as 'enrosadira') contrasting with the deep, grounding Alpine greens of the valleys below. It is this rich, emotive landscape, blending historic glamour with natural ruggedness, that provides the essential design DNA for our refined new collection.

The Veneto region is deeply personal, connecting me back to my family roots and the enduring beauty of Italy. This collection is about capturing that quiet, effortless sophistication and relaxed hospitality, ensuring our products are not only stunning but live on (hopefully) as long as some of those ancient villages!"

The Dolomiti Plains collection introduces a textural and emotive palette heavily influenced by the serene tones of Italy's Veneto region, featuring Rosa, Dusk Blue, Clay, and Alpine Green.

More than just an elegant colour story, the fabric is built for longevity and superior performance in the Australian environment. It is crafted from a durable, high-performance material that is reliably water proof, offers an essential UPF50+ sun protection rating, and is perfectly made for both our outdoor upholstery and umbrellas.
