The original antique document for this pattern
was purchased by the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation for its
collection. Little is known about the origins of this early French
pattern, although the use of multiple floral species emanating from a
single vine was a popular one. Exceptionally beautiful, it illustrates
how closely fabric and wall hangings correlated in the first three
quarters of the 18th century. While its large scale can easily
compliment any spacious room, the chintz works surprisingly well in
more intimate spaces.
This pattern is licensed to Adelphi Paper Hangings
by The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation.
