New in Clearance: Stonehenge Earth Rhythms

Stonehenge Earth Rhythms was inspired by beautiful rock formations created millions of years ago with the changing rhythms of the earth. A full width stripe featuring a gradation of textures and hues is reminiscent of sedimentary rock. Stone textures that look like strata, agate, granite and limestone in tones ranging from light to dark complete the collection.

Stonehenge Earth Rhythms is by Deborah Edwards for Northcott.
