Philosophy of the Tent:

The best decorating and design takes inspiration from what was once done before. Whether it is in architecture, antiques, art, it all stems from a mix of inspiration and knowledge. I believe it is a duty to pass on and share the knowledge, and by no means do I think I have great knowledge, in fact the more I know the less I know.
This blog is a way not to forget what I have learned and what was kindly passed onto to me by a great many fascinating people. I thank you all.

Palm for the Palm

Etienne print by Colefax and Fowler
This is the most perfect botanical print for Arabia, I love it! The aquamarine and heather shades are particularly beautiful and high on my list of favourite scheme colours.  The print lends itself to upholstered walls, covering of furniture, and I will have to have cushions of it on my sofa.  
Perfect with my rusty-orange silk velvet stool.  
Etienne is from a few collections ago but will not doubt remain a classic.
