Created as a tribute to Lucia Eames’s joyful artistic legacy, the Butterfly Tapestry transforms one of her most recognisable motifs into a tactile woven artwork. Inspired by her original collages and lifelong fascination with textiles, the tapestry captures the nuanced texture and sensitivity of her work.
Handwoven in kilim from hand-spun Afghan wool, each piece reveals subtle variations in weave density that softly define the butterfly silhouette. Embroidered detailing enhances its crafted character, while the ready-to-hang format allows effortless placement throughout your home. Featuring a woven signature and beautifully presented, the Butterfly Tapestry brings organic warmth and a deeply personal presence to your walls.
Lucia Eames was an American artist raised within one of the 20th century’s most influential design partnerships. Born to Charles Eames and later raised in the creative household of Charles and Ray Eames, Lucia developed an intuitive artistic language shaped by nature, materiality and experimentation.
Working across collage, photography, textiles and mixed media, her largely private body of work explored texture, pattern and found materials with remarkable authenticity. In 2026, nanimarquina honoured Lucia Eames’s enduring artistic legacy through an eclectic collection of handwoven rugs and tapestries inspired by her original works, bringing her distinctive visual style into contemporary interiors.
