Finally, a chance to use 'ubiquitous' in a sentence...
Cash's
(sometimes called J&J Cash) is a UK company
located in Coventry, England. Cash's has been
producing silk embroidered bookmarks, luggage and
clothing labels and name tags for over 150 years. You
might assume something as ubiquitous as a clothing
label would not merit museum level custom framing.
But you would be wrong.
Cash's produces a product that is clearly motivated
by quality and pride in craftsmanship. It is
genuinely a work of art, much in the same vein as a
beautifully machined watch. A labor of love, so to
speak.
This is a silk embroidered horned owl, which is part
of a limited run of coniferous forest animals Cash's
produced. Other varmints include a peregrine falcon,
an otter and some wood ducks. Each piece is about the
size of a business card and each will have their own
frame.
Cash's is currently producing a series of
Beatrix Potter silks, which is a perfect visual
for the embroidery medium. And the price is very,
very reasonable.
