Cole And Son

A true Cole & Son classic, featuring a forest of silver birch trees, Woods is presented here in three brand new colourings of aged pink and gilver, blue and white and eau de nil and gold. Taken from the iconic 1959 screen print, Woods has become a firm Cole & Son favourite with its calming print in a variety of palettes. The elegant silver birch tree design is refined in uncomplicated tones as well as the understatedly elegant hues.

Marquee Stripe is a beautiful hand-rendered design inspired by pottery. Soft and serene, this stripe captures the beauty of artistic brush markings.

The climbing trail of Wisteria floribunda can be found throughout the Cole & Son archive. This deciduous, sun-loving, summer bloomer with its refulgent racemes has been updated with a trailing hand-drawn trellis to create a graphic print that is as in keeping within a cottage garden as it is in a contemporary setting.

Sur-flex printed, Wisteria has a thick, chalky texture bringing each individual bud to the fore in palettes of Coral & Sage on Parchment, Magenta & Leaf Green on White, Stone & Olive on Duck Egg, Powder Blue & Jade on Cerulean Sky, and Sage on Leaf Green.

Created as a complement to Hummingbirds Flora, Flora depicts the bursting bouquets of honeysuckle to which the birds flock. Completely hand-drawn and hand-painted, this delicate floral trail is bursting with nectar waiting to be discovered.

A study of hummingbirds in flight, Hummingbirds Flora depicts these diminutive birds as they flit from flower to flower collecting nectar. Perched upon branches they are surrounded by lush honeysuckle flora and butterflies, adding a whimsy to this panel scene.

Sold as a 2.1m panel, this captivating design can be used in isolation for a cascading feature or repeated for an immersive botanical interior.

The inspiration of this print is ‘Sole di Capri’ a design created by Piero Fornasetti in the 50s. Piero Fornasetti long had a passion for Capri and created this iconic design from his imagination, before ever having visited the legendary island. Piero eventually took the family there on holiday and, during the 1960s, also opened a temporary Fornasetti boutique on the island.

The original print is a combination of personified suns and stylized architecture, both typical of Fornasetti. The idea of pairing personified suns and clouds appears for the first time in a sketch for a headscarf that Piero drew in 1950. It is now a whimsical all-over print, bringing a unique quirk to an interior.

Fornasetti used shells to cover the walls of his Lake Como villa dining room, as a mid-century interpretation of a sixteenth-century grotto. The room also featured a delicate shell ceiling lamp made by Giulia, Piero’s wife.

Stemming from the original ‘Ortensie’ design, Barnaba Fornasetti created a dense bouquet of petals with bees that at first covered a scarf and furniture of the Atelier. This bounteous floral print is full of life, drawing you into the garden and filling your thoughts with the sweet smells and sounds of summer. Soft pastels are reminiscent of organic Ortensia hues, whilst a simple monochrome accentuates the delicately detailed linework of this expansive design.

Taking its name from the Chateau de Villandry which houses one of the grandest gardens in France, Villandry's design is printed in a classic Toile de Jouy style featuring a pastoral landscape of parkland, waterways and follies in traditional colourways of red, soft charcoal, cobalt blue, and dove grey.

Midsummer Bloom depicts abundant summer flowers in full bloom. This blousy print was found in the Cole & Son archive and re-painted by the Design Studio to create a rich and lavish trailing floral.

Moody colourings of Burnt Orange, Rose & Petrol on Ink; and Mulberry, Purple & Teal on Ink give Midsummer Bloom a contemporary update whilst Chartreuse, Rouge & Leaf Green on Parchment; and Hyacinth Blues on Chalk offer a more classically chintzy floral arrangement.

Uccelli, meaning birds, originated as luxurious folding screens depicting vibrantly coloured birds of all species adorning sparse branches. Since translated to a beautifully intricate wallcovering panel design, this delicate motif brings an ornate quality to a stand-alone feature wall or, used in repeat, creates a stunning aviary rich in detail and colour.

Each roll of Uccelli contains two drops creating a full decorative panel measuring 104cm wide by 240cm high. The design features an extra 40cm of ground colour above the trellis so that it can be trimmed from the top to perfectly fit the wall it adorns.
