Parchment Cross
The piece
Parchment Cross places a tall cross of red and black stripes on a wide parchment field, the bands folding into nested corners where they overlap. Stacked triangles in red and black sit in two opposite corners, and striped bars run across the top and bottom edges. The open field shows a soft sheen and gentle shading. It works as a quiet but graphic piece for a hallway, a study or a dining room.
