A Chinese Tea Party Furnishing Fabric Pillow
A Chinese Tea Party Furnishing Fabric Pillow
Couldn't load pickup availability
This furnishing fabric depicts a chinoiserie 'tea party,' a favorite invented scene in which European designers imagined elegant figures in fanciful dress gathered beneath parasols and pagoda roofs to take tea. The subject played on Europe's growing taste for tea drinking itself, imported from China and reimagined here as a decorative fantasy rather than an observed custom. Large-scale patterns like this covered furniture and walls in the chinoiserie-fashioned rooms of eighteenth-century Europe.
Jacquard-woven both sides in soft, durable yarn; insert included.

I wanted something for the stairwell that nobody else would have, and this is it.
It arrived two days after I ordered, which I did not expect. The colors in chinese tea party are richer than any version I found online.
It is a very good pillow that costs a bit more than it should. The colors in chinese tea party came through almost exactly as I hoped. Really no complaints worth writing down…
This went well past what I expected. There is a life to chinese tea party here that flat reproductions usually kill. It has held up through a winter of dry radiator heat with no curling at all.
I have bought three of these now for different rooms…
