PARADISE FOUND
British luxury interiors brand de Gournay is famous for hand-painted wallpaper that faithfully reproduces some of the world’s most exquisite painting techniques. But did you know that it also produces porcelain ware and figurines? Much like de Gournay’s wallpaper, the finishes on each figurine is painstakingly reproduced by hand. The Familie Rose Parrot Blanc de Chine porcelain seen here features airbrushed glaze and hand- painted enamels. Just perfect with brand’s unapologetically sumptuous L’Eden wallpaper to create an indoor tropical paradise.
In Singapore, de Gournay is exclusively distributed by Tatum Company. Prices upon request. Visit de Gournay to find out more.
