Royal Delft Etudes De Fleurs Fabric

$393
Free Shipping

Royal Delft Etudes de Fleurs is inspired by the iconic Dutch tulips associated with stately Royal Delft Tulipieres, and the extraordinary beautiful blooms in still life Dutch paintings and the Netherlands. Tulips were in cultivation since the 13th century, but only really took off as a passion for collectors among aristocrats in the 1600s when Turkish traders introduced them to the Dutch. The tulip crazes in the 17th century became so fevered that the bulbs were traded as currency and theft of the flowers triggered harsh penalties. While it’s not the fanciest flower in the garden, the beauty, and grace of a simple tulip mean enduring love between partners, undying passionate love, passion spurned, royalty, abundance, prosperity, and indulgence. Although it was considered more of a symbol for charity by the Victorians, the Turkish who originally bred the flower, considered it a symbol of paradise on Earth, making it a part of many religious and secular poems and art pieces. While the Ottoman Empire planted the bulbs to remind them of heaven and eternal life, the Dutch that popularized the flower considered it a reminder of how brief life can be instead. Mixed with simple wildflowers and scattered in all directions, Flora & Fauna is considered a symbol of happiness and joie de vivre! Flora & Fauna pays homage to artist Vittorio Accornero whose Giardini di Seta works for Gucci inspired a generation of interior and fashion designs to create floral art.

Royal Delft Palace William & Mary Fabric

$279
Free Shipping

The provenance of Royal Delft “William & Mary” is the commission in the 1600s of thematic tile plaques (manufactured in Delft) based on a design by Daniel Marot, who worked as a principal designer to William of Orange and also worked at William and Mary’s court in England and who may have played a pivotal role in furnishing and decorating the Water Gallery at Hampton Court Palace. A blue Delft vase is within a three-lobed ornament or trefoil surrounded by a cartouche with large curling acanthus leaves and flowers. Filled with diamond ornament on either side of the trefoil, a bird sits on the cartouche. Delft tiles were often used to seal damp walls from moisture and as Stadholder of Holland and King of England, William III decided to tile the walls on the Thames-side rooms to keep out the dampness with exceptionally beautiful glazed tiles. The project was never completed, as Mary died in 1694, and the rooms were demolished as early as 1700. The plaques sold piece by piece and disappeared, only resurfacing in 1923 when an art dealer put ten for sale. They are now housed at various museums, including the Metropolitan Museum, Rijksmuseum, Default, Cophenhagen, and Sevres. With reverence for the originals and equal parts artistic license, we carefully resorted their beauty on a new medium.
