Put your hands up if you love toile de jouy wallpaper<\/a> ? There was a time when Laura Ashley brought out a toile de jouy wallpaper <\/a>many years ago. It was the best seller when I worked at the King Street branch as an interior stylist. It was a soft purple colour and it would just fly off the shelf as soon as it came into stock. They then added cushions, bedding, fabric etc to the collection and there was even a waiting list some months. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So what makes toile de jouy wallpaper<\/a> so popular? This is a dated design that has been round ever since I can remember. And trust me that is a long time. I will go into the Laura Ashley toile de jouy<\/a> design much later as they did reinvigorate this classic pattern. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

History Of Toile De Jouy Wallpaper<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Lets us look back to when toile de jouy first appeared. Well I went and researched this on Google<\/a>. And I was fascinated at what Masterclass<\/a> had to say on this interesting subject. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They said <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Printed toile fabric was originally produced in Ireland in the eighteenth century. The printed textile quickly became popular across France, when the German-born Christophe-Philipe Oberkampf opened a factory in Jouy-en-Josas in 1760. Oberkampf\u2019s factory was one of the first major producers of toile. Even though the printed fabric was originally Irish<\/em>. The textile became known as toile de Jouy<\/a> or toile for short, eventually spreading across the rest of Europe<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oberkampf worked with the prolific designer Jean-Baptiste Huet, who is responsible for several of the historical patterns of the cloth. Those initial designs were single-color prints on a white background. Featuring pastoral scenes, vignettes with people from the French country, and references to European mythology. The subject matter has changed over time<\/em>. But Huet\u2019s classic, provincial aesthetic and simple, single-color design remains the standard for toile today.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

French Pastoral Scenes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The scenes that proved the most coveted were the ones mentioned above. It was the pastoral French or English countryside scenes. Close your eyes and think of wandering woodland animals, fluttering birds, and the odd farm ladies and fisherman are also seen amongst the trees, lakes, and river. The imagery is wonderfully dateless, relaxing, and inviting. I can imagine Marie Antoinette being impressed with these designs. She was alive when this was first produced. And if you have ever been her grand Palace Of Versailles just outside the Paris capital you will see bedrooms draped with golden toile de jouy. Marie Antionette was the trend setter for the 1700’s. She loved the countryside so much she had made on the grounds of Versailles her own petit palace. This was aptly named Petit Trianon<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Petit Trianon <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This small private palace had its own exclusive private room in which she would sit and sleep. The duck egg colour which I remember clearly was soft, fresh and calming. This room was also unique as it had sliding panels and mirrors. Marie Antoinette would relax in this room and move the panels and mirrors so she could look out but no one could see her. Around her small palace a pastoral farm and village was created. This was so the Queen or Dauphine could experience a normal life outside the strict confines of her role or the main palace. The Hameau de la Reine (French pronunciation: \u200b[amo d\u0259 la \u0281\u025bn], The Queen’s Hamlet) is a rustic retreat in the park of the Ch\u00e2teau de Versailles built for Marie Antoinette in 1783 near the Petit Trianon in Yvelines, France. … A working farm was close to the idyllic, fantasy-like setting of the Queen’s Hamlet.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Queen and her guests would dress in countryside attire of plain cloth and pretended to live in this small working village. This gave her much freedom and joy. She would entertain most profusely throughout her reign and if she was entertaining at Petit Trianon you could not enter without a invite or key. Even the King Of France could not enter it is told by historians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So when I see any Toile De Jouy wallpaper, I feel transported to France. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dior Toile De Jouy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

So in keeping with the French theme the fashion house Dior brought out a new collection and branded it using pretty toile de jouy<\/a> in the most beautiful stunning colours. Have you seen this? Recently they launched a branding party to introduce the new collection in London. And everything from tablecloths, napkins, and drapes featured toile de jouy. Influencers such as Amelia Liana<\/a> went crazy over this launch party. I could not help but be slightly jealous, I mean who wouldn’t. I mean if Marie Antionette was alive today I am sure Dior would no doubt receive a royal approval with the style and packaging surrounding this campaign. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Grey<\/a>

Think curtains, bedding, wallpaper and even tablescapes d\u00e9cor. And be sure to check out the toile de jouy book tote bag which features preying tigers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So lets get back to what Wallpaper Shop do best and that is how we can help you add toile de jouy wallpaper<\/a> and cushions to your home. You can create your own shabby chic style home.

Toile De Jouy Laura Ashley <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

So back in the early 1990’s Laura Ashley launched their own toile de jouy collection. and as at the beginning of this blog I spoke about it being incredibly popular. I think this really brought this classic pattern to the forefront of interiors at that time. Other brands and stylists jumped on the band wagon and started to produce their own versions. But the Laura Ashley toile de jouy <\/a>which came in a soft muted lavender colour which was unique. Most toile de jouy<\/a> designs back then came on a pale cream or white backdrop. The Laura Ashley toile de jouy was different as it was much thicker and textured and the backdrop was a deep lilac. The toile de jouy print<\/a> then was a softer lilac colour which just looked sublime. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once Laura Ashley and Dior used this country chic pattern everyone just swooned. Mix this pattern with organic linens, frill tablecloths and a vase of fresh blooms and you will unite the whole shabby and vintage interiors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So lets work through the toile de jouy wallpapers<\/a> we think may be of interest to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
