Pattern Description:

Fire Rating: This product meets Class "A" fire rating for commercial wallcoverings.

A striking feature wallpaper, Pineapple Garden is as vibrant and eye-catching as the original archive silk design that inspired it. Uplifting and joyful, the pattern skillfully combines graphic florals and swirling leaves with exotic pineapples and geometric elements for a unique, mesmerising effect. The pineapple fruit was highly valued by the Georgians as a sign of prestige, that later came to symbolise hospitality and welcome and so is ideal for use in home decoration. An on-trend mélange of dusky Apricot and neutrals to radiate warmth in any scheme.

Available in 5 colours: the original Yellow, Verde, Apricot, Sage and Colbalt

Pineapple Garden Archive inspiration: Design for woven silk, James Leman (1688–1745), Spitalfields, London, 1707

The Leman Album, one of the V&A's greatest textile treasures, served as the inspiration for this pineapple pattern. The album has 97 patterns for woven silk fabric that were painted in watercolour. They are Europe's earliest dated silk designs, created by Huguenot master weaver and designer James Leman. It has been reproduced using the Sur-Flex process, developed in-house at 1838 by combining two traditional techniques: Surface and Flexo printing. Surface printing provides a wonderfully thick ink coverage and hand-painted appearance, and Flexo finely detailed effects.

V&A Decorative Papers II Collection

In this exquisite third collaboration with the world-renowned museum, 1838 reimagines a selection of artworks from the V&A to elegantly connect the past and the present. Decorative Papers III celebrates the creative brilliance of the original designs while blending the traditional wallpaper printing skills of 1838, passed down through the generations, and innovative, contemporary techniques. The result is an enduring collection of luxuriously crafted wallcoverings with patterns that feel authentic and restorative and continue to speak to us today.
