Drawing its inspiration from an 18th-century printed French textile, Persephone Wallcovering reverentially honors the rich tapestry of Scalamandré©'s history. Recalling an archival chintz from our 1976 archives, Persephone Wallcovering features a luxurious portrayal of interwoven vines adorned with resplendent roses and lush greenery, harmoniously intertwined with pomegranate motifs symbolizing abundance and authority. This non-woven wallcovering seamlessly coordinates with our Persephone Print fabric.
This captivating collection, created in collaboration with The Met, draws on artworks and objects from across nine of The Met’s 17 curatorial departments to create a rich mosaic of historical narratives. Each design is a celebration of artisanship, inspired by exquisite forms and cultural traditions. Following our first collaboration with The Met in the 1970s, we bring museum magic into the home once again in homage to history and the grand beauty of art.
