Burberry checks, formed by intermeshing black, white and red lines against sandy background is one of the symbols of Britain and one of the the attributes of the famous brand. The harmony of this checkered pattern is simple and at the same time excuisite.

 

Being checkered is a certain hint at matricity. Magic square matrix 3x3 is cut out of a single square of Burberry-checkered cloth and laid over some other fabric. Four Burberry brand buttons are set inside of the closed silhouettes of numbers 8, 9, and 6.
