The Royal Exotic !

I came across this upholstery fabric by Manuel Canovas (www.manuelcanovas.com) a couple of days ago while i was voyaging through the internet. I stopped & stared hard. It was a stunning piece inspired by Mughal art successfully reduced to commercial & production constraints yet retaining the very essence of the inspiration.Saturated in colour, pattern & detail,  this was such a visual treat!

I daydreamed around the piece adding a teal couch & photographs of ( absolutely unrelated) royals in gilded frames.




I can see myself  alternating between ogling at the gorgeous Dara curtains & reading a book 
(White Mughals maybe) while waiting for my imaginary butler to bring in some "chai".
