In 1842 a new pattern block was delivered to a decorator in Belgrave Square, London. Intricately carved by hand on pear wood, the design was called Sweet Pea. According to the order books of the time it was considered so special that it was labeled a ‘private paper' destined for the most important clients. In 1892 it was ordered, along with a further ‘private paper', Rose Buds, by Lord Chesham for his home in Buckinghamshire. In 2008, the Design Studio at Cole & Son decided that these designs had lingered in the archive for too long. With the aid of the latest 21st century printing technology and a diffusion of metallic inks, Sweet Pea has been adapted and rejuvenated to make it even sweeter. This grandiflora has been printed in 9 colours to capture the subtle shading of each petal - firey scarlet, blush and ochre with gold foliage on ebony ground; mauve and plum with green washed foliage on palest aqua; faded sugar pink dappled with copper, bronze and gunmetal on mink; splashed aubergine, violet and green on moonstone; or tones of powder and indigo blue with bronze and silver on mouse. Rose Buds has also been adapted and is demure in neutrals on French grey; fizzing pink and silver on stone or divinely decadent in lipstick red, purple and gold on black. Attributed to the celebrated Arts and Crafts designer C.F. Voysey, Dovedale has stylized silhouettes of doves and swallows perched within dense foliage. In colourways of gold on duck egg; chalk on pale putty or gold on crimson. An intriguing Charles Rennie Mackintosh inspired Art Nouveau design, Pergola, has a latticework of stylised roses, seed pods, harebells and hearts in bronze on old white; silver on lime; chocolate on bronze or chalk on buff. A small Art Nouveau design has been enlarged and transformed into Vinetree. This elegant bouquet floating in a star-strewn sky is ethereal in crackled silver on mouse; silver crackle on celadon or silver crackle on night sky. The Art Nouveau design, Poppy, is now blowsy and brazen in cerise and dove on dull silver
aper white and nero on pale ochre
urple and gull on palma violet or flame and pewter on pigeon. Gathered on crackle grounds, the early Victorian Lilac has smoke and gold on silver gilt or scarlet tipped pink on silver gilt. Tulip Damask is an Art Nouveau damask design with single silhouetted tulips encircled with leaves in bronze on chocolate; flame on cerise; chalk on parchment or silver on mink. A delicate early Victorian open damask, Ladies Slipper, has a ladies slipper orchid between two roses and is set within a filigree circle in old gold on bantam's egg; chalk on stone; silver on palma violet; copper on cerise or rose tinted mica on coal. Originally a mid Victorian design, the delicately sketched Wild Flowers design floats on an ornate background adding another dimension to this classic design - pewter and pink on chocolate; cornflower and silver on stone
ink and bronze on terracotta or white and bronze on duck egg. Sweet gentle flowers for Victorian Myrtle, a phantasmagoria of carnations, sweet williams, roses and lilies all magically growing on a shared stem in silver and white on taupe; rose, green and gold on pale plum or pink. The acclaimed design, Madras Violet is back by popular demand. Now with colourways of dappled white with sage and gold foliage on dusty pink; white with moss and lime metallic on sky; faded indigo with olive and pewter on burnt cream or crushed raspberry with olive and bronze on bitter chocolate. The languid wisteria of Egerton are in colourways of white and bronze on mist
alest pink and putty on champagne lustre or white and bronze on aubergine. Cornelia, originally an Arts and Crafts design, has a mass of buds and foliage to scramble across the wall in silver on buff; chalk on dove; bronze on fuchsia or silver on aubergine. Adding an extravagant flourish, Eastern Rose, originally a mid eighteenth century textile design, is in silver on taupe; bronze on taupe; gunmetal on fuchsia; cream on duck egg or white on stone. Sold in 10 metre rolls (11 yards) and 52cm (20 1/2ins) wide
