Every design is cut once, in a single numbered run the atelier can finish properly by hand. This page is how the system works, and what is still open right now. The run size follows what the atelier can finish without hurrying, never demand. When the last piece sells, the pattern is archived and the number retires with it. Your garment’s card records its number, its run, and the artisan who finished it. A design is approved and its run size is set, forty pieces at the very most, often fewer for embroidered work. The number follows the atelier’s hands, never demand. One run, one cutter. Every panel of every piece in the edition passes through the same hands, which is why a run holds together like a family. Each finished garment is logged in the atelier ledger against its number and date, then its card is signed by the artisan who finished it. When the last piece sells, the pattern is archived. No reissues, no new colourways, no exceptions. An idea may return one day, but always as a new design with its own number.Forty pieces. Then never again.
Scarcity here is not a strategy. It is a consequence of hands.

Your piece’s papers
Every garment arrives with its numbered card, hand-signed in the atelier: the edition number, the run size, and the date it was finished. Keep it; it is your piece’s birth certificate and our record of who made it.
