Royal Delft Flora and Fauna 33' L x 27.5" W Metallic Wallpaper Roll

Royal Delft Flora & Fauna is inspired by the iconic Dutch tulips associated with stately Royal Delft Tulipieres. Tulips were in cultivation since the 13th century, but only really became a passion of collectors among aristocrats in the 1600s' when Turkish traders introduced them to the Dutch. The tulip craze in the 17th century became so fevered that the bulbs were traded as currency, and theft of the flowers triggered harsh penalties. Mixed with simple wildflowers and scattered in all directions, Flora & Fauna is considered a symbol of happiness and joie de vivre! Flora & Fauna pays homage to artist Vittorio Accornero, whose 'Giardini di seta' works for Gucci inspired a generation. Nicolette Mayer Color: Blue
