Egyptian Sungold: A 1973 EgyptAir Upholstery Fabric for the Boeing 707

The Winged Scroll Jacquard reflects a transitional moment in airline interior design, where abstract, flowing forms replaced rigid geometrics. The mirrored, wing-like shapes echo aviation themes without literal symbolism, creating a sense of movement, warmth, and modernity suited to long-haul travel in the early jet age.

Preserved as unused archival yardage, this fabric was never installed before being rediscovered and transformed into small-batch accessories. Each piece retains the integrity of the original textile while giving new life to a material once destined for the cabin of a jetliner.
