Description
The Botanical Atlas fabric collection reimagines the natural world for interiors. Combining the renowned Liberty colour palette with rich layered embroideries, opulent textured weaves, and contemporary printed velvets and linens, Botanical Atlas invites us on a journey across the globe. With reference to Sir Arthur Liberty’s expeditions during the 1880s-1910s, this collection explores a captivating array of flora and fauna. From trailing Chinoiserie motifs, to miniature Persian Garden illustrations, the Liberty Botanical Atlas fabric collection seamlessly intertwines the charm of traditional techniques with modern accents.
Created in parallel to the Botanical Atlas wallpaper collection, this series also incorporates innovative, unseen artworks, and beloved archive pieces reworked into new striking scales. Influenced by Liberty’s five colour stories: Lacquer, Jade, Lapis, Pewter, and Lichen, Botanical Atlas is a fascinating collection of visually exquisite botanic narratives.
Meticulously hand-painted in the Liberty Design Studio, in the heart of London, and expertly crafted using traditional and cutting-edge techniques in Italy, Belgium, and India.
Inspired by a collection of mid-19th century hand-painted shawls from the Liberty archive, Cypress Stitch offers a striking rendition of the cherished Persian Voyage design. Now rendered for the first time as a beautiful densely embroidered fabric, Cypress Stitch is a truly spectacular botanical paisley of tropical palms, feathery fronds, and graceful ferns. Embroidered using matte yarns on a rich cotton base, suitable for light domestic upholstery, drapery, cushions, and accessories. Cypress Stitch is an interpretation of Cypress Voyage, a sumptuous wallpaper design in the Botanical Atlas collection, printed on grass cloth in four colour stories.
