TASMAN SANDSTONE – Handwoven Raw Silk Jacket

Weathered by Time. Inspired by Nature.

Sailing down the east coast of Australia from Sydney to Melbourne unveils a dramatic coastline of golden beaches, deep inlets, and towering weathered cliffs. These rugged formations stand as natural barriers between land and the vast Tasman Sea, sculpted over millennia by the relentless force of wind, waves, and time. As the morning sun ignites the cliffs at dawn, the rich golden hues of Tasman Sandstone emerge—warming the landscape in breathtaking splendour.

This raw beauty is the foundation of the Tasman Sandstone Raw Silk Jacket. The handwoven silk mirrors the golden warmth of the cliffs, with intricate interplays of sandy beige, deep ochre, and warm amber tones—a tribute to the elements that continue to shape Australia’s eastern seaboard.

THE ART OF THE WEAVE

Handwoven Raw Silk – Naturally breathable, lightweight, and luxurious.
Warm Sandy & Ochre Tones – Inspired by the sunlit sandstone cliffs of Australia’s coastline.
Subtle Textured Weave – Emulating the wind-sculpted layers of stone that tell an ever-evolving story of time and tide.

HOW TO WEAR IT

Dress It Up – Smart charcoal or coffee trousers, a white or pale blue dress shirt, and polished leather shoes for understated elegance with a natural edge.
Dress It Down – Style with tan or ochre chinos, or lean into the coastal inspiration with a bold Hawaiian print shirt—effortlessly blending sophistication with laid-back charm.

LIMITED HANDWOVEN EDITION

As with all Joe Bananas handwoven silk jackets, the Tasman Sandstone is a rare and exclusive piece, taking 250-300 days to weave.

A TRIBUTE TO THE LAND, THE SEA & THE ELEMENTS

More than just a jacket, this is a connection to nature’s artistry—a reminder that the land and sea shape each other, just as great style shapes a presence.

Inspired by the cliffs of Australia, designed for those who carve their own path.
