Thanks to Kelly LaPlante's genius website, The Green Grades-a website created to give "comprehensive reviews and evaluations of companies providing eco-furnishings", we are thrilled to have found Oliveira Textiles.
Founder, Dawn Oliveira, left her job of working with high-end fashion designers such as Liz Claiborne and Polo Ralph Lauren to launch Oliveira Textiles in 2007. Her goal was to provide fabrics that were free of toxins and chemicals harmful to the environment and our health. She is motivated by the simple desire to leave a healthy planet for our children.
All of the fabrics are either organic hemp or organic cotton with a waterbased dye, free of heavy metals. And all of the fabrics are absolutely beautiful.
The patterns are bold and organic forms in vibrant colors such as mystic blue, red coral and seaweed.
The patterns are obviously sea inspired, yet they do not have that typical "beach" theme or feeling to them at all-which we totally love.
Stop by the showroom to see the samples in person-we are anxious to start using them!
