Silk Gilet with hand-applied block print in Ausseer colours
The lustrous Gilet in pure silk shows the Ausseer colours. The hand-set, traditional block print quotes the Lampasse and makes the Gilet a true treasure. Thanks to the individual hand printing, every model becomes a unique one-off.
Hand printing
A hand-printing technique for textiles has been known since the 18th century. Its basis is the Model, a solid wooden block into which the Model engraver drives fine brass pins according to the motif. In exacting handwork, the negative of the sought-after motifs is created in this way. Clamping the fabrics correctly, inking the Model carefully and finally placing it on the fabric with precision are what make up the skill of a true master of hand printing. A slight offset in the pattern, the so-called Modelzaumstond, proves that the print was made by hand and makes every garment a one-off. The valuable Modeln were usually passed on from generation to generation, yet motifs are lost again and again. Every surviving, unforgotten motif is therefore all the more valuable. Gössl has devoted itself to the singularity of the patterns themselves and digitised them. In this way the old motifs are preserved and can at the same time be shown creatively in new proportions.
