Dawn at Studland arrives by degrees, pink giving way to gold before the eye can catch the moment. A blush wash at the edges deepens wave by wave towards a centre that glows rather than shines.

• Dawn gradient: blush at the edges, deepening to a glowing gold centre
• Silk-lifted paths: the brightest lines raised in silk
• Hand-knotted in Jaipur: wool and silk, holding structure in any light
• Balanced scale: wide enough to anchor a room, considered enough not to overwhelm
• Best placed: beneath a Georgian cornice or a concrete ceiling, in morning light
