Rose Tendril

The piece

Rose Tendril carries an all-over garden of fine vines across a dusty rose field. Small blossoms in gold, cream and deep navy branch from thin dark stems and gather into loose sprays around a quiet central axis. A wide near-black navy border of scrolling vines and rosettes, edged with narrow gold guard bands, gives the soft field a strong outline. It brings warmth to a reading corner, a bedroom or a small sitting room.
