Chinoiserie Steals

Anthropologie

 

Lovers of chinoiserie covet the look of hand painted chinoiserie wallcoverings, but the cost can be very high. Doing a room in wallpapers like de Gournay or Gracie can cost as much as a new car.

Global Chinoiserie

OutSourceSol

 I love the vibe of this room with its gorgeous chinoiserie panels mixed with a wicker chaise, seagrass ottomans, ikat pillows, animal prints, and hide rug. This room is modern, eclectic, and global and even a bit beachy.

Can anyone explain the pink cords from the pendant lighting? Could that be to adjust the height??? I hope they are not electrical cords....

Green and Chinoiserie

Veranda - May June 2015

I am completely flipping out over this Dallas apartment by Cathy Kinkaid. Love the 19th century Chinoiserie panels, the green lacquered walls, the faux bamboo pagoda chandeliers, and of course, the collection of blue and white Chinese porcelain. The black and white floors on the diagonal are such a classic. I love too the use of stripes - I invariably use stripes in a room with Chinoiserie.

Chinoiserie Panels How To

Create a focal point in any room of your home with a pair of Chinoiserie panels as in this living room by interior designer Jessica Lagrange from Traditional Home. Another great trick - give that Persian or Oriental rug of yours a modern look by layering it over a sisal rug. The Decorator Archives has an extensive selection of Chinoiserie panels at very affordable prices for that dramatic focal point your home has been waiting for.

Many of you will recall this incredible sepia toned apartment of Ellen O'Neill from House Beautiful featuring Cowtan and Tout's wonderful Chinoiserie toile Siam. If you love this palette, check out the stunning sepia panels in the three bottom photographs from The Decorator Archives.

Chinoiserie Panels How To

I hope you have all checked out the incredible Chinoiserie panels at The Decorator Archives. I am beginning a new series to inspire you on ways to use them in your home. This Barrie Benson dining room featured in Domino shows us a wonderfully modern approach, trimmed out in black molding. Large wallpaper panels like these can be hung directly on the wall as murals or can be mounted on gator foam board so they can move with you. This beautiful panel in the bottom photo is very similar - Royal Garden Cream. It measures 72'' wide by 96" high and is priced at $378.

The Decorator Archives

The Decorator Archives has now launched its website. This will be your "go to" source for the highest quality fine art and prints. They sell both original art and giclees. The collections are meticulously selected by interior designers and are available only online.

The curators of these collections have been in the interior design business for over thirty five years specializing in decorative sets of art and prints, especially large scale art, as well as murals. The collection of Chinoiserie is incredible, but they also have collections of animals, architecture, botanicals, modern, people, and many others. You will always find their link in my sidebar. New pieces are added virtually daily, so check back often.

Prints start at $29.00. You will find everything from single prints up to 5 panel murals 15' wide by 8' high. I know that many of us thought that Chinoiserie art, panels, and murals were only for the very rich and just a dream for the rest of us. Well, stop dreaming and make it happen with this wonderful source. Here is a recent post of mine with a gallery of rooms with framed Chinoiserie panels. I will now spend the rest of my morning pouring over all these stunning choices. Over and out.
