The trend of Chinoiserie has been here for a while and doesn’t seem to be going anywhere. Chinoiserie is the European interpretation and imitation of Chinese and East Asian artistic traditions, especially in the decorative arts, garden design, architecture, literature, theatre, and music. The aesthetic of Chinoiserie has been expressed in different ways depending on the region. The classic vintage and antique Chinoiserie is timeless. It is on large painted screens, bold patterned textiles and even birdcages.
Italian glass lighting
Ultra-femme, statement-making lamps and chandeliers are very popular at the moment. They add glamor and sparkle to any room. Rich or pastel colors with an addition of flecks of gold is very hot right now. This beautiful romantic style won’t be fading out anytime soon.
