Camellia Trellis is an enchanting wallcovering, deeply rooted in the inspiration drawn from China's historic silk trade with the Western world. It meticulously recreates the exquisite allure of an early 18th-century painted silk panel adorned with delicate depictions of camellia and lotus flowers, and butterflies along a trellised border. This non-woven wallcovering mirrors the graceful symmetrical composition of these botanical wonders, akin to the ornate patterns found on the harmonizing Camellia Trellis fabric. This harmonious union invites you to immerse yourself in the opulent beauty and historical resonance of this design.
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.
