FARNFIELD

Viburnum, foxgloves, roses and plumbago in tight bunches of varying sizes are scattered through this pretty chintz and framed by a trellis of twisting, ruffled ribbons. The naturalistic colouring of the bouquets is beautifully offset by the blue, pink and cream of the decorative ribbon against a cream background. Taken from a mid 19th century document of considerable freshness and charm.
