Tammis Keefe

A female textile designer born in 1913. When you think of American mid-century collectible fabrics, the first name that comes to mind is Tamis Keefe, also known by her nickname Tammy. Since she died at a young age in 1960, her works are limited to the 1940s and 1950s, and her works are highly sought after by collectors for their designer sensibilities and the sensibilities of the times. Maybe it’s the charm.

Her designs are characterized by a 50s-like color scheme of pink, turquoise, gold, and black, as well as cute, humorous animal characters, illustrations of angels, and motifs inspired by nature.

Handkerchiefs are a particularly popular brand among vintage fabric collectors, but kitchen towels, table linens such as tablecloths, and silk scarves are also highly valued.
