Chinoiserie Panel VI Pillow

Chinoiserie textiles such as this one flourished in eighteenth-century France and England, where designers translated a fantasy of Chinese life — teahouses, latticework, and figures at leisure — into large-scale repeating patterns for the European home. Fabrics of this scale were used to cover furniture or entire walls in fashionable rooms, forming immersive decorative schemes. Designers including Jean-Baptiste Pillement and Jean-Baptiste Huet were instrumental in shaping this widely imitated decorative language.
