About This Piece


Camellia Trellis is an enchanting textile, reimagining an early 18th-century silk panel crafted in China for the French market. The original, now in The Met collection, is painted with delicate camellia and lotus flowers among blooming vines. Such drapeable silks, fashioned for diverse applications such as dresses, elegant fan leaves, and decorative screen panels, characterized the final phase of China's ancient silk trade with the West. This captivating collection, created in collaboration with The Met, draws on artworks and objects from across nine of The Met’s 17 curatorial departments to create a rich mosaic of historical narratives. Each design is a celebration of artisanship, inspired by exquisite forms and cultural traditions. Following our first collaboration with The Met in the 1970s, we bring museum magic into the home once again in homage to history and the grand beauty of art.
