This print is an example of Victorian textile art and one of the stars of the Schumacher archives. The F. Schumacher Boughton House in Porcelain (175790) is a modern interpretation of the original design and expands the scale of the pattern with generous poppies, peonies, and roses trailing along a thick striped repeat. With a faux moire edging, it is perfectly poised for the fashionable resurgence of chintz. The Porcelain selection of the Boughton House combines layers of pale blues in an elegant floral collection.
Mining the archives for its 125th anniversary, Schumacher has pulled together an assortment of its greatest hits, a roundup of its most prized fabrics and wallpapers. Some are nearly identical to the originals while others are re-imagined and re-interpreted and expanded to fit the size of modern homes. With its quality and attention to detail, this collection adds a punctuation mark to the company's 125-year timeline.
