Chrysanthemums represent long life, lotus flowers are a symbol of purity, and peony roses, symbolise prosperity, luck, love and honour in the positive story of Herringbone Florals. The bold, colourful herringbone design also pays homage to the work of Walter Nichols, a renowned American rug designer who, in the 1920s, combined traditional Chinese motifs with asymmetric patterns and bright, bold colour during the Art Deco era.
Bold blocks of colour in the herringbone pattern ground this design, allowing the gold-etched floral motifs to burst beautifully to life.
Hannah has brought together some rather beautiful pieces in our latest mood board, with each piece taking inspiration from our Herringbone Florals design.
'There is such a thing as the Pink Effect. When people are exposed to large amounts of pink it has a calming effect on the nerves, relieving feelings of anger and aggression. Pink represents love, romance and peace.'
