We adore the intense, rich, regal colours of the Henry fabric.

The intensely hued velvet goes hand in hand with the luxurious Author’s own chocolate brown leather piping.

We chose Blackpop’s ‘Tudors Deconstructed’ Henry fabric, attracted initially by its arresting visual impact and then drawn into the design, with its multi-layered effects.

Blackpop’s 'Tudors Deconstructed' collection was produced in collaboration with the National Portrait Gallery, mixing details and motifs from the 16th century masterpieces with textures revealed using new photographic techniques. The collection of beautifully raucous and unashamedly joyful patterns challenge us to juxtapose old and new, traditional and contemporary, to take the rule book and launch it onto a large manor house fireplace.
