The launch of our Pétalos pattern precipitated the debut of a spectacular new colorway, Abalone. With its soft, muted greens and pinks, Abalone gives an unusual aura of iridescence.

For artist and Eskayel founder Shanan Campanaro, the reference to these beloved bivalves also presents a strong connection to place. She remembers her grandparents – who lived on a sailboat in San Diego – diving for abalone during her childhood. The shells went on to serve as resting places for kitchen sponges in the home where she grew up.

More recently, these tones have inspired her choice of colors in several Eskayel fabric and wallpaper patterns, where muted pinks and greens lend a fluid, serene feel.
