Looking at a photograph of a beautiful fabric, or reading about it on a screen, is a poor substitute for holding it in your hand, feeling its weight and texture, seeing how its surface changes with the light or enjoying how it looks and feels when it’s draped around your body. The idea behind the larger-than-average thumbnails is to say what we can, with pictures and words, but also to add some complexity, as new stories and pictures are added, and enable a more serendipitous way of looking over the material.
