The design is first drawn or photographically printed onto a celluloid sheet and then is transferred onto a silk screen by applying light sensitive gelatine to the screen and placing the celluloid sheet with the design on top of it and exposing both to light.  Where light has reached the silk screen the gelatine hardens and becomes insoluble. The rest of the screen, where the design has blocked out the light, stays gelatinous and this is washed away, leaving clear only the parts of the screen which carry the design. A separate screen is created for every part of the design which will be printed in a different colour. In production the silk screen is placed over the plain fabric and then the appropriate colour is applied as a thick paste, forced through the screen onto the fabric beneath. \r\n\r\nDisplayed to the left:\r\n\r\nDelores\r\nSample of screen-printed cotton furnishing fabric\r\nDesigned by Eddie Squires for Warner and Sons Ltd\r\nBritish, produced in November 1964\r\nT.990-2000","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null}}],"partNumbers":["T.959-2000"],"accessionNumberNum":"959","accessionNumberPrefix":"T","accessionYear":2000,"otherNumbers":[],"copyNumber":"","aspects":["WHOLE"],"assets":[],"recordModificationDate":"2025-08-13","recordCreationDate":"2000-12-07","availableToBook":true}}
