Rococo Silk
Fine China
Discover an elaborate pattern of dreamlike florals with the Rococo Silk collection from the V&A. This bold and luxurious pattern in vibrant blue and rich terracotta is draped across modern and casual shapes that are made for more relaxed dining. The pattern is adapted from a design for wo- ven silk from the circa 1730s. The original design comes from Anna Maria Garthwaite's bountiful collection of designs in the V&A that record the Huguenot silk-weaving industry in London and capture the marvel of the eighteenth-century Rococo style.
