Pagoda river is a very early design from the Eton Rural collections of the 1910s. At the end of the 19th century and into the early 20th century Chinese and Japanese artwork were popular as products from the East became widely available in Europe for the first time. The original fabric was rotary block printed and the characteristics of the printing technique have been retained in the new design.

Silken tassels jauntily swing from the corners of Pagoda Tapes stylized suggestion of a roofline. Designed by David Kaihoi, this wide embroidered applique trim is equally enchanting when used vertically or horizontally.

Based on an early 18th-century French document, Chinoise exotique is a grand design depicting Chinese figures hunting exotic Indian animals. This pattern is a classic example of the kinds of chinoiserie patterns developed for export to the European market in the early 1700s. These fabrics became so popular that France passed a law banning them from sale out of fear that they would collapse the French textile market.

This classic chinoiserie print, derived from an early twentieth-century woodblock printed textile, features baskets brimming with water lilies and cherry blossom branches, interspersed with butterflies and decorative objects. The charm of the antique original is evident in its simplified rendering and soft, watery appearance. The color palette ranges from clear porcelain blues and springtime hues to heathered mulberry, all printed on a versatile medium weight of linen and cotton.

Our "Gardens of Chinoise" fabric is a Chinoiserie favorite and takes on a modern approach in a classic blue and off-white palette. With classic Asian elements like pagodas and dragons, this print plays homage to Chinese porcelain. This fabric is suitable for pillows, bedding, window treatments, and light upholstery.
Inspired by garden fretwork or lattice patterns, this sumptuous ornamental fabric blends graceful geometry with a finely textured weave of linen, cotton, and viscose. The decorative and symmetrical fret design is slightly raised from the surface with edges that are subtly accented with contrasting dotted line work. Colorations are soft and nature-inspired, providing versatile options for layering into traditional interiors. The tranquil palette also creates a gentle geometric statement in an otherwise minimal modern setting, when used on upholstered chairs or as floor-length draperies.
