Botanical Fabric “Cabinet of Curiosities” – Printed Cotton with Birds, Butterflies, Bees and Flowers in Frames – Slate Blue 250 x 280 cm Elegant home fabric with a refined pattern inspired by natural history plates and ancient botanical and ornithological prints. The design looks like a gallery of paintings: dozens of rectangular and square frames, with cream passe-partout and taupe borders, are arranged harmoniously on a slate blue background, as on a wall of author-made artworks. Each frame encloses a small natural subject drawn with the precision of scientific illustration. You can recognize rose-throated bullfinches, great tits, thrushes and small birds on twigs, butterflies and bees lined up as in an entomological collection, ferns, herbarium leaves, magnolia branches, orange blossoms with small fruits, white-and-black engraved peonies and flowering twigs. The colors are slate blue, white, cream, taupe, sage green, olive green, orange, coral pink and ochre, for a bright, orderly ensemble with a cultivated, retro charm. The motif evokes nineteenth-century English naturalist prints, cabinets of curiosities, and collectible herbariums. It has a country chic and refined cottage taste, easy to pair with light furniture, natural woods, distressed finishes, wicker, and brass or bronze details. The presence of cotton gives a soft, natural hand, while polyester contributes practicality and good durability over time. Perfect for adding character to a room, creating coordinated accessories, or producing original decorative details. Each frame can also be cut out and showcased on its own, for example for cushions, panels, or small textile pictures. Ideal for Decorative curtains and window treatments. Pillows, cushion covers and other textile accessories, even by extracting individual frames as a central subject. Armchairs, seats, poufs and small coverings.
