Home > Shop Wallpaper > V&A Pineapple Garden – Yellow Wallpaper
A striking feature wallpaper, Pineapple Garden is as vibrant and eye-catching as the original archive silk design that inspired it. Uplifting and joyful, the pattern skillfully combines graphic florals and swirling leaves with exotic pineapples and geometric elements for a unique, mesmerising effect. The pineapple fruit was highly valued by the Georgians as a sign of prestige, that later came to symbolise hospitality and welcome and so is ideal for use in home decoration. Despite dating back to 1707, the original yellow colourway is surprisingly modern and refreshing.
Available in 5 colours: the original Yellow, Verde, Apricot, Sage and Colbalt
Pineapple Garden Archive inspiration: Design for woven silk, James Leman (1688–1745), Spitalfields, London, 1707
The Leman Album, one of the V&A's greatest textile treasures, served as the inspiration for this pineapple pattern. The album has 97 patterns for woven silk fabric that were painted in watercolour. They are Europe’s earliest dated silk designs, created by Huguenot master weaver and designer James Leman. It has been reproduced using the Sur-Flex process, developed in-house at 1838 by combining two traditional techniques: Surface and Flexo printing. Surface printing provides a wonderfully thick ink coverage and hand-painted appearance, and Flexo finely detailed effects.
