What is Gesso?????? Well it is, in fact, a combination of Plaster of Paris and glue that painters would use to give texture to the bases of oil paintings or bas reliefs starting itn the 1500's. Pronounced "JESO" long O.
This is the hottest color in the Arte Pura Line in our shop called Gesso Old. This one of our velvet reversible coverlets embroidered with Cornely Roses and with a beautful volante. The velvet dyes darker and the volante shows more of the true Gesso Old. Now it is a spring bed with the white and Angelo Old resembling bleached blue jeans.
This was the same spread in the winter version......
This Color, Gesso Old, has just proved not only gorgeous but so compatible with other colors....
We are selling it in tabletop,
Bath accroutrements,
And, as shown on the left in pajamas.........(You know, the ones no one is wearing to bed!)
There are three Gesso's here. Can you pick them out? And wouldn't the ensemble on the right be the coolest workout outfit EVER?????? For the younger fry of course. ( like those who don't NEED to)
A little Swarovski there on the bottom. Why not have a little bling when you are working up a sweat????
The Gesso again on the left in this darling nightdress, with the Tulle lace trim available on the pillows, tabletop, and bath items........
More of this color.... I Obviously LOVE it.
THIS is the ultimate Gesso Old.....The Zaffiro bedspread. Ok, listen up, this is linen enveloped with organza, embroidered with roses. It comes with a volante on all four sides also encased in organza. And it comes with a surprise. It has another layer of linen underneath and a pocket for a duvet insert. Angelique!
Brilliant!
This is the Gesso Old in the Atollo bedspread,,,, belongs to one of our customers....
I HAD to photograph it before it left the shop... See how gorgeous the Gesso is with the Shell Pink?
She loves it by the way......

The Gesso is beautiful...I love it with the Anglelo blue. It would work in so many areas...a sofa for example...but it's perfect how it's used here, so pretty!
