The Róisín Dubh Toile.. Inspired by one of Ireland’s most famous songs, ‘Róisín Dubh’, meaning ‘Little Dark Rose’ or ‘Dark Rosaleen’, The song is reputed to have originated in the camps of Red Hugh O'Donnell. The 16th century song is based on based on an older love-lyric which referred to the poet's beloved rather than, as it is often used, a metaphor for Ireland. a dramatic. A wild print featuring black horses and thorny dark roses, contrasting the dark imagery with a soft plaster pink background. The print is put into a repeat as a nod to a traditional toile print.
