Bluebird Vintage Series - Relic Brussel Dark Blue

DARK BLUE, LAYERED RETRO GEOMETRY
Deep blue blocks repeat across a beige-grey base, surrounded by old-yellow gridwork, light-blue accents and layered borders in coordinating tones.

Discovered in Brussels during a Jacquard Treasure Hunt, this New Old Stock cotton trim was selected from a mixed group of vintage woven bands. Its tightly packed yarns create a structured surface with alternating smooth and plush areas. It then became part of Bluebird’s growing archive of recovered textile designs.

Handcrafted with near-invisible, colour-matched stitching, reflecting Bluebird’s attention to detail.

THE BLUEBIRD DIFFERENCE:
• Deep blue blocks create a confident visual rhythm.
• Balanced colours complement varied guitar finishes.
• Raised cotton adds depth and woven texture.
• Layered borders provide a structured finish.
• Aged brass works naturally with the old yellow.
• Cognac full-grain leather adds lasting strength.

Handmade in the Netherlands.
