“Cypress” Combines Worldly Craftsmanship With a Simple, Modern Color Palette

Mizoram and Zig Zag

Newark, NJ – Thibaut celebrates the essence of the old world with “Cypress,” a collection of wallpaper and printed and woven fabric designs inspired by traditional craftsmanship and printing techniques from India. Paisleys, block prints and embroideries lend a charming, aged look and feel. A paired down color palette, gives the designs a simplistic, modern look. These exclusive designs are ideal for upholstery, or creating beautiful draperies and bedding.

“Mizoram” presents a sophisticated yet relaxed look with a batik block-print pattern and primitive hand. The pattern is a one-color floral design, in sage green, indigo, black, red, aqua, brown and beige. The design also comes in a metallic on brown. Another batik-inspired design, “Sabeen,” is a scrolling, curvy, floral damask. The simplicity of the pattern displays classic design with a timeless charm. Acanthus leaves and damask medallions intermingle to create “Haleema,” a block-print style pattern with a more elegant, formal appearance.

“Shalimar,” a scrolling vine pattern, in an open, clean design with a natural linen-like background and cotton embroidery over the top. This design is also one-color, with a look that gives modern panache to a very simple motif. The fabric is an ideal coordinate to many designs in the collection, and is great for use on pillows, draperies, and accent chairs.

“Bandonese,” a silhouette of a Jacobean floral, is taken from an antique crewel pattern. The design is printed on heavy, fibrous paper. Colors include black on white, cream on aqua, and a burnished metallic finish on orange, cream, and dark brown. Metallic accents and leafy vines flow through the paisley design in “Tranquebar” in which large, paisley-shaped flowers in the design are offset by contrasting leaves.

“Orissa,” a grand-scale Jacobean, has hand-drawn details with dotted line accents. A simple three-tone color palette gives the design a contemporary flair. Combinations include aqua, tan and brown; tan and beige; and orange and rust. Birds grace “Pondicherry,” a large branching Jacobean pattern with an aged, worn look. The design comes on aqua, beige, brown, orange, blue, cream and natural backgrounds.

Other key designs in the collection include “Khimani Plaid,” a wallpaper and soft cotton fabric with a clean, tailored look, and “Zig Zag,” a heavy-weave solid-colored fabric interlaced with a geometric embroidery pattern.
