Circular talismans suspend across the surface, their woven centres catching nightmares according to Ojibwe tradition. Dream renders dreamcatchers—asabikeshiinh in Anishinaabe language—alongside celestial and mystical symbols forming protective constellation.
The pattern depicts traditional dreamcatcher structure: willow hoops containing web-like centres woven to trap negative dreams whilst allowing positive visions passage through central openings. Feathers and beads hang from leather thongs as originally intended—feathers representing breath or air, essential for life. Accompanying iconography includes crescent moons, stars, and eyes suggesting protection and spiritual watchfulness. The design simplifies these elements into graphic clarity suitable for repetition whilst maintaining recognizable symbolic forms. Multiple colourways shift the pattern's atmosphere from earthy naturals referencing Indigenous origins to contemporary pastels or dramatic darks.
Printed in Cornwall with attention to the linear detail defining woven web patterns within each circular form.
Dream suits bedrooms where the protective symbolism aligns with the space's function as rest sanctuary. The pattern carries cultural weight—dreamcatchers originating from Ojibwe people—deserving respectful application rather than purely decorative use. Consider feature walls behind beds where the talismanic quality feels most appropriate. Scale remains moderate, suitable for intimate sleeping spaces.
