Description

Inspired by a fabric created by the esteemed British textile firm Steiner & Co. in 1914, this masterpiece in wool features a crowded pattern of chinoiserie-style peony heads and delicate petals in the style of an English chintz. The original design, held in the V&A collection, is an early illustration of the popularity of motifs and plants from the Far East, which peaked in the mid-1920s as wallpaper and textile designs of the era reflected a romanticised picture of East Asia.
