The Dashing Farmhouse brings the essence of artisanal Mallorca to our interiors

For those of us still feel unsure about travelling overseas during these times, why not bring our favourite destinations to our homes and create staycation experience enriched with Mediterranean flair.

So you may welcome the news that The Dashing Farmhouse has launched their new Casa Deia Collection, an artisanal homeware collection from Mallorca handcrafted by “the most wonderful artisans” on the island and is now available in the UK.

Cushions above suitable for indoors or out are hand-made from natural fibres - 70% cotton and 30% linen – in authentic Ikat made by artisans in Mallorca, one of the very few families in the island (and the world) who still specialise in these highly sought-after traditional Mallorcan fabrics since they started the business in 1854. The famous Ikat design is the result of a beautiful and elaborate process which takes 2 to 3 months to create each batch of fabric.

Given the fact that one half of The Dashing Farmhouse was born and raised in Mallorca, having an Artisanal Homeware Collection from the island was a must. Mallorca is home to some of the most wonderful artisanal products created by fabulous family businesses that have been using traditional crafting methods passed down the generations.

It brings a gorgeous touch of Mediterranean artisanal flair to the table. 

Mallorca´s understated glamour and rustic Mediterranean landscape have always had a fascinating appeal.

The Dashing Farmhouse work directly with families who have been using the same traditional ways of working since the 1800s and who are extremely proud of the labour of love involved in the creation of beautiful products that represent the unique heritage from the island.  The new generations have embraced the traditions, knowledge and craftsmanship of their crafts passed to them with immense respect and with a vision that blends tradition with contemporary design and colours, the results are simply exquisite, according to founders Nathan & Patricia.

“Our textile artisans create the traditional Mallorcan Ikat fabrics, a process that requires 2 to 3 months to create a single batch! The quality of the fabrics is second to none with a wonderful mix of linen and cotton. The fabric is then used to create cushions, tablemats, lamp shades and chair covers amongst many other items.”

This lovely Red Ikat Small Bowl, part of a set of four, has been hand painted with the traditional Mallorcan Ikat design. Perfect for serving sauces, olives, almonds, strawberries and other small apéritifs.

Moreover, the ceramic and textile artisans offer Bespoke Services, meaning that clients are able to create their own designs and devise beautiful spaces that are completely their own. The design opportunities are endless.
