Dutch Mastery in Wax Prints

 

This company from Holland has been in the textile business since 1846. It's not only well recognized in its industry but has built a reputation of quality works in producing wax prints from West and Central Africa. The collection of designs is extensive and stylish; bringing out the shapes, patterns and colors, expressed in the cultural heritage of the represented regions. The site has a lot to offer and I really loved looking at the fabric designs. There are  articles, tips given, stories behind the meaning of some of the designs and more.
