New Zealand’s Wallpaper Experts Since 1960
Paeonia
The V&A's collections narrate a rich history of British textile production. A prosperous business was the Calico Printers' Association, a textile company established in Manchester in 1899 through the amalgamation of 46 textile printing companies and 13 textile merchants. By the early 20th century, the company was producing high quality dress fabrics, traditional chintzes and engaged in the research and development of textiles. During the interwar years, its design studios produced printed cottons inspired by a revival in interior design and fashion for chinoiserie. Featuring ornate motifs and exotic blooms, these fabrics recalled hand-painted Chinese wall panels originally seen in 18th-century European decoration. Based on an example from 1918, Paeonia depicts large peony heads, built up with layers of luscious colour and texture.
