Ithaca Or Bust Trojan Horse Design Details

The Ithaca Or Bust design is machine embroidered at approximately 20cm x 18cm, giving the artwork a bold patch-like presence on the navy garment. The emblem uses 5 thread colors: old gold, marble cream, weathered wood, ink navy, and stone grey. A Greek key frame gives the design a polished ancient-artifact feel, while the cracked marble hill, distant ship, and tiny banner reading “After Troy” add the dry humor. The bronze and cream stitching stands out clearly against the navy sweatshirt, creating a premium, cinematic look without relying on printed graphics.
