Screen-printed cotton called 14/6 designed by Finnish architect Alvar Aalto (1898–1976) and printed and distributed by NK Textilkammare for the "Signerad Textil" (Signed Textiles) collection in Sweden in 1954.
In 1955, Swedish fashion designer Pelle Lundgren created a day dress of 14/6's sister fabric, 14/14, that was modelled during the fashion show at the H55 Exhibition in Helsingborg in 1955.
Aalto's original design for 14/6 and a cotton length in the black-and-white colorway are in the Nationalmuseum, Stockholm (NMH 39/1982, NMK 151/1979).
