In 2019, as part of the Bauhaus centenary celebrations, Harriet Wallace-Jones and Emma Sewell of Wallace#Sewell were authorized to create a re-edition of Gunta Stölzl’s original ‘Prellerdecke’ blanket. The project was initiated by Jörg Klambt, founder of Designshop at Bauhaus Dessau.
The original design having been lost, Wallace Sewell have realized and recreated the design, with help from Gunta Stölzl’s daughter, Monika Stadler, and archive drawings and photographs.
Through textile detective work Emma and Harriet analyzed an existing photograph of the original blanket. Sketches and color swatches were followed by more detailed design development, undertaken by hand on small looms in our studio, before weaving full-scale pieces at a mill in Lancashire. The Wallace Sewell Prellerhaus blanket harks back to the original as closely as possible, picking up on the rhythm and simplicity of Gunta’s design.
Orchard is sage green matched with ochre and dark teal, creating a warm and cozy palette.
This pillow matches the Stölzl Throw Orchard.
Please Note: Each pillow will have variations within the colorways and pattern.
