Xanthus & Balius Sweater
£265.00
Produced in a very limited run, the Diamond Roc X National Gallery Xanthus & Balius sweater is the first sweater create in collaboration with The National Gallery. Using our luxury Baroc sweatshirt as the base, we added a mysterious painting of the horses of Achilles. The clear, easily interpreted detail of the patterned sleeves and ghostly nature of the images in the paining with the soft black cotton as the canvas create a stunning piece .
Painting
