Mossoki House Welcomes Evangeline: Heirloom Textiles Rooted in the Heart of Maine
Mossoki House is delighted to introduce Evangeline, a local Maine brand that captures the essence of the state's natural beauty and translates it into exquisite, heirloom-quality textiles. Founded by Ben Ray, Evangeline is a story of homecoming, family, and a deep appreciation for the rugged charm of Maine.
A Love Letter to Maine: Inspiration from Every Ledge and Pine
Ben, a native Mainer, is deeply connected to his home state. From the dramatic coastlines to the towering pines, the beauty of Maine serves as a constant source of inspiration for Evangeline. He finds wonder in the simple things – the texture of seaweed, the changing spectacle of the seasons – all elements that weave their way into the soul of Evangeline's creations.
Homeward Bound: Bringing a Global Vision Back to Maine
For over a decade, Ben travelled the world, honing his expertise in the textile industry. However, Maine's allure never faded. The decision to return home and raise his family – Atticus, Harlow, and Hazel – alongside his wife, Alessandra, solidified his connection to this special place. Evangeline, born from this love for Maine, represents a homecoming and the culmination of Ben's artistic vision.
Heirloom Quality, Woven with Purpose
Evangeline's textiles are more than just beautiful; they're imbued with purpose. Each piece is crafted from high-quality materials, designed to be used and cherished for generations. Ben aspires to capture the essence of Maine in every creation – the wild beauty, the enduring spirit, and the warmth of home.
Simple Materials, Exquisite Results: A Celebration of Everyday Use
Evangeline's philosophy embraces the beauty of simplicity. They utilize natural materials and traditional techniques to create textiles that are meant to be part of your daily life. Each piece is a testament to the transformative power of craftsmanship and the enduring value of quality.
