Rosette is a playful print that puts on a show. This pattern was inspired by a series of trome l’oeil designs in the archives of French textile house Bianchini-Férier. The pattern creates an illusion of three-dimensional ribbon rosettes in a polka dot-like repeat.
Rosette is inspired by a painting from Bianchini-Feriér's archives. The painting shows a ribbon "rosette", like the kind used atop awards. The notes hint that the colors may have corresponded to a naval fleet.
One of Bianchini-Feriér's mills in Lyon, France. Lyon was long the world capital of silk production, weaving luxurious fabrics for centuries of royalty.
Bianchini-Feriér was world-renowned & operated for over a century after its founding in 1888.
An icon of textile design, Bianchini-Férier became world-famous after the Paris Exposition of 1889. The firm operated continuously for over 100 years, surviving through the Great Depression, two World Wars, and a century’s worth of design eras. Their archive is a course in 20th century art, from Art Nouveau to Postmodernism. Bianchini-Férier textiles were used in couture fashion houses including Balenciaga, Givenchy, Poiret, and Yves Saint-Laurent.
Rosette is a playful print that puts on a show. This pattern was inspired by a series of trompe-l’oeil designs from the archives of French textile house Bianchini Férier. The pattern creates an illusion of three-dimensional fabric rosettes that form a polka dot-like repeat. Trompe-l’oeil was central to the very first wallpapers, which were an affordable alternative to tapestries. Other notable fans of trompe-l’oeil textiles include Napoléon’s architects Percier & Fontaine, and Nancy McClelland, the first female president of the American Institute of Decorators — proving that a bit of whimsy is always in style.
