Etch Cushion
Etch, in a subtle near-monochrome palette, pewter, black, ecru and antique gold, is a striking grid of dots. The textural quality of this jacquard fabric is achieved through a double-weave process; interwoven mixed fibres, including a heat-shrink yarn, create a tension in the cloth for an embossed surface – a Margo Selby signature structure.
Margo Selby x Osborne & Little
Margo Selby has designed three collections for the British interiors company Osborne & Little.
Blaze Cushion
The Blaze decorative cushion features isosceles triangles forming a diamond pattern, in navy and burnt sienna, with a unifying horizontal pinstripe ombré.
Margo Selby | Woven Process
Margo uses many types of thread: cotton; silk; wool; tencel. The warp design is developed through yarn windings. Her handwoven artworks often employ Lampas weave structure, that allows pure weft colour to sit on pure warp colour.
Gladstone Rug
The Gladstone rug is hand tufted in varying shades of blues and greens which change in tone as the light hits them from different angles. The 9 colours balance to build a unified composition.
Margo Selby x Osborne & Little
Margo Selby has designed three collections for the British interiors company Osborne & Little. Each collection brings together diverse textures and striking colour in woven fabrics for upholstery and soft-furnishing. Inspirations are as diverse as Fairisle knit, cut glass and Bauhaus typography, and music.
Morecambe Towels
The Morecambe design is a bold rhythmic pattern. Made up of multicoloured geometric motifs, these sumptuous woven cotton towels provide an instant splash of colour.
Margo Selby | Bespoke Fabrics

Marvin Chartreuse Cushion
Marvin | A cut velvet design based on tessellating tile patterns. This fabric is woven using different ‘cut and loop’ weaves creating a rich, textured cloth with a 3-dimensional effect. The Margo Selby collection for Osborne & Little brings together diverse textures and striking colours, in luxe woven fabrics. Inspirations are as diverse as Fairisle knit, cut glass patterns, Bauhaus typography, and music.

Peggy Rug
The Peggy hand-knotted rug is a spotty multi-coloured design in rich and contrasting earthy tones. The spots are layered over different blocks of colour in the background adding depth to the design.
Canterbury Rug
The Canterbury rug is a technically complex design achieved with 12 harmonious colours in a geometric progression. Chromatically subtle, in pinks, blues, ochres and olive, with a tonal range from black to ecru. The orthogonal linearity, narrow or broad, and regular or varying, makes for visual depth and interest.
Margo Selby | Tesselation Series
Margo's use of colour is instinctive and joyful – blocks of colour interacting. The proportions are arrived at by way of combining intuition and measurement. In a game of scale, moving from micro to macro, each composition is a development of weave structures blown-up and abstracted. The method of production requires exact planning and complex mathematical calculation.
