PARCHMENT FLOWERS

The Parchment Flowers collection comprises nine designs which have been printed on a mix of glazed and plain cotton and linen unions, together with one stunning linen embroidery. The collection encompasses a mix of bold, large scale designs and softer, smaller scale designs. Inspiration for the collections has been drawn from a mix of antique botanical engravings, paintings and other archival documents housed in the Sanderson archive and in decorative arts museums around the world. As a result, a diverse range of flowers have been depicted including magnolias, poppies, wild flowers and ferns. Coloured in dusky pinks, mustard yellows and duck egg blues, some designs reflect the watercolor tonality of the botanical drawings they have been inspired from, while others feature more dramatic, eye-catching colour combinations.
