Wormwood Angel Burial Noir Tee

A fallen angel rendered in antique bone ink on black heather cotton — the kind of shirt that stops people mid-sentence.

Taken from a genuine museum-held engraving — an old master's line, not a generated image — the artwork carries the density and drama you only get from a real antique source. The illustration is strictly monochrome: a single cream ink pressed against Black Heather ground, printed with a coarse halftone grain that reads like aged newsprint or a 90s bootleg pulled from a record fair box. The lower edge of the figure doesn't end cleanly — it dissolves into ink drips and scratched marks, as if the image is being slowly consumed by the fabric itself.

What the artwork shows: a fallen angel kneeling in a ruined garden, face bowed beneath the impossible weight of wings whose feathers have been replaced entirely by wormwood branches — serrated, spreading wide in a dark crescent behind the figure. From its open hands, white poppy petals cascade downward, bleeding into that dissolving lower edge. The figure sits high on the chest, with negative space swallowing it from the knees down. Blackletter type anchors the composition in proper 90s-bootleg fashion — heavy, liturgical, unapologetic.

The garment is a unisex fit in Black Heather, cut with enough weight to drape well and enough give to wear all day. Soft but substantial — the kind of tee you reach for first.

Perfect for:

• Layering under an open flannel or overshirt for a low-effort dark aesthetic look

• Wearing alone when the artwork needs to do the talking

• The person on your list who owns more black clothing than colour

• Any occasion that calls for baroque art, occult angel imagery, or just a genuinely interesting shirt
