Holiday 2025, Mr. Blue Skye x Sakura Bloom
Since 2016, we have released seven collaborations with our friend and textile artist, Rachel Ehlin-Smith aka Mr. Blue Skye. Each collection different from the last — we've never quite been able to keep them around for long. So, for the eighth time, we thought we'd ask Rachel to bring back some of her magic, and bring the magic she did…
36 one-of-a-kind Sakura Blooms
In this eighth iteration, Rachel chose one of her personal favorite textiles, silk velvet, as her canvas — dreamily hand dyeing these unique pieces one by one in her Little Italy, San Diego studio. Galaxies of greens, blues, pinks, and browns come to life as each piece is unwrapped and draped to dry…
Handcrafted From Start to Finish in San Diego
Back at our workshop, each piece met its Simple Silk backing — Chelsea, Banff, or Rainier — alongside the warmth of our Walnut leather and gold hardware. Little by little, 36 one-of-a-kind Sakura Blooms came to life.
