Trailing stems of carnations, tulips and exotic blooms in madder red, burgundy and sage wind across an écru ground in the Indienne tradition — the style of European printed cloth inspired by the Indian cottons that arrived by trading ship in the 17th century and transformed the decorative arts of the continent.
