RATTI REVEALS THE ART OF PRINTING ON FABRIC Thanks to the help of a master printer, Ratti invites you to discover and create prints using traditional plates. A special experience, a unique immersion in this artisanal know-how. An invitation to step behind the scenes of fashion! Ratti possesses a large collection of wood printing plates. These archives, acquired in the 1970s, recount the history of pre-1900 textile designs. The wood and copper plates are veritable masterpieces of traditional craftsmanship. «This is a way to share our world and our passion for our work. For us, that means paying considerable attention to detail at every step of making our products, in order to achieve the best quality. Researching, studying, experimenting with new production techniques, new printing processes, new fabric collections to inspire designers. Working for the client, working with the client, by designing fabrics together and by offering exclusivity and a high level of customisation. Capturing the zeitgeist. Take inspiration from the past and reinterpreting it in new ways..» «Breathing life into silk is an art, today just as it was yesterday.» : These words from Antonio Ratti have shaped the special quality of the company, conveying a strong symbol of a unique and irreplaceable culture, built over decades of activity. A world built on a search for beauty, for what is created today and for what will be created tomorrow. The search for beauty is a daily commitment on the part of those who work inside the company at every level, from designers to management, from marketing to production. In each creative act, in each department, at each moment of contact with the outside world, beauty is the value that guides choices, actions, and behaviour. A unique demonstration at BLOSSOM PREMIÈRE VISION! FOR MORE INFORMATION, SEE OUR WEBSITE:
