Hane – table runner – Åse Brevik (ÅB)

"Rooster" is a distinctive table runner in which Åse Brevik works with symbolism and ornamentation in a clear, decorative idiom. The motif is built around a centrally placed rooster, enclosed by an oval frame that gathers the figure and gives it an iconic presence. The rooster stands upright and clearly defined, with strong colours and a calm, balanced expression.

The composition is strictly symmetrical and adapted to the elongated format of the table runner. The central figure acts as the focal point, while the decorative borders along the sides and the flowering ground create framing and visual anchoring. The overall design is carefully composed, establishing a clear hierarchy between figure, ornament, and surface.

The colour palette is warm and lively. Shades of pink, yellow, green, and blue interact to give the motif energy and lightness. The rooster’s plumage is graphically simplified yet rich in detail, creating variation within a disciplined formal structure. Danish Flower Thread lends clarity and depth to the colours and supports the decorative quality of the design.

Linen 7U provides a light, open texture that highlights the stitching and gives the table runner a bright and inviting appearance. The character of the fabric complements the ornamental design and allows both colours and details to stand out.

Rooster functions as a striking and atmospheric table runner, suitable for everyday use as well as special occasions. The motif adds character and narrative to the table setting without feeling heavy. For retailers, the design is a strong choice for assortments focused on figurative motifs, confident use of colour, and classic embroidery with a clear and recognisable identity.
