Newark, NJ – Elegantly and traditionally styled “English Manor” is one of Thibaut’s latest collections. Inspired by historic homes, “English Manor” is a compilation of historic reproductions and European designs with a decidedly English flair.

The collection includes such grand designs as “Georgian Vase,” a reproduction of an antique frieze of ornate urns resplendent with roses against a delicate trellis pattern. The soft round shapes of the fifteen-color hand-printed design are reminiscent of an old-fashioned block print. “Brentwood,” a large-scale arabesque damask of scroll and floral elements, has an opulent color palette including dark red, deep blue, and creamy beige. “Elizabeth,” a replication of an 18th century toile, captures pastoral scenes of the past in soft hues of blue, coral, and beige. Another noteworthy pattern, “Cornucopia,” is a dense leafy pattern with intertwining branches that surround wicker baskets filled with lush fruits and flowers. The baskets rest on small tufts of grass.

Along with these grand designs, the collection also includes smaller-scale novelty prints. “English Country” is a mini trellis design complete with petite illustrations of rural life. “Tudor Place” is a delicate pattern featuring miniature tulips and ladybugs against a plaid background.

English Manor” and other Thibaut collections are available through interior designers and fine wallcovering and decorating stores. For the names of local dealers or interior designers, call 800-223-0704.
