By Walid
For By Walid, it all started with a jacket made from 18th-century hemp linen sourced from a market, which garnered the attention of design-lovers everywhere. To British-Iraqi founder Walid al Damirji, this moment proved that he wasn’t the only one obsessed with forlorn and forgotten fabrics – and so his eponymous collections were born in 2011. Every piece stays true to his zero-waste philosophy via the restoration and remounting of antique textiles, from 19th-century French tapestries to 17th-century Florentine silks. The one-of-a-kind results, suited to every room in the home, are bursting with unique character and charm that speak to the individual history of each reworked thread.
