The Faith Checkmate

Faith Checkmate honors Alia’s creative journey, inspired by Anjuli Bernstein and Marianne Kemp, with the rich aesthetics of African Divine Tribal design.

Geometric checkmate patterns, seen in poolside pavers, shaped the visual concept. Using real horsehair and 100% cotton yarn in sand dune and cecily tones, She crafted an organic yet sophisticated essence. The intricate color-and-weave block houndstooth pattern adds depth and texture, blending heritage with modern design into a tactile, dimensional experience.
