Molten gold with impurities' swatch comparison

Molten gold with impurities: swatch comparison of this design printed on different fabrics & scales. It printed darkest on cotton sateen - shown as the background fabric [scaled @ 150 ppi] - and lightest, but with more sheen, on the silks. The swatch on the left is crepe de chine, and the swatch to the right of that is cotton-silk [both scaled at 300 ppi]. © Su Schaefer 2012
