Bouquet Garni

Lucienne Day is best known for her furnishing fabrics, but in the decade 1959-1969 she devoted a lot of her time to the design of household goods: bathroom accoutrements  (towels and bathmats) kitchenware (cheeseboards, plates, bowls), and these glass towels, which she made in collaboration with the Irish firm Thomas Somerset and their subsidiary Fragonard Ltd. She enjoyed the constraints of designing something for a small rectangular piece of linen, rather than for a large piece of furnishing fabric, the constraints, paradoxically, freeing her imagination, and allowing her to produce award winning designs. Bouquet Garni has three bold colour stripes with black-printed motifs of leaves and herbs – this design won both a Design Centre Award, and a Gold Medal at the California State Fair in 1960.
