Hydron colours on cotton yarn
A sample book of Hydron colours on cotton yarn, issued by the Cassella Color Company of New York in 1900 for dyers and textile trades. Its numbered plates show striped yarn swatches in blue, navy and red, alongside a lithographed view of the Lyons dye factory. A designer might take from them the bold navy and slate stripe rhythms and the angled red and white block motifs.
